We come to these places in our lives where we can choose to lie down, to wallow, and to remain, or to rise, to push on, and to move forward. That’s it, those are the choices. It’s okay to nurse our wounds, tend to our needs, and to rest our weary bones, but then we must away again if we are to live meaningful and productive lives in spite of the many cares this world throws at us.
Sometimes we need to be reminded to get up.
