HUMP DAY HOPE WITH WEDNESDAY'S WORD: PERSEVERANCE

Do you have the energy to 'make it'?  Do you have the power and motivation to see things through?  Do you continue with situations because you KNOW they are worth the fight?  Sometimes you just HAVE to make it!  You have to substitute the fear and flight with the hard sneer of the fight!  Own it; be it; TAKE CHARGE.

I like to watch horror movies.  In many cases you see that the 'good guy' wins, but in movies like "Friday the 13th", "Nightmare on Elm Street", and "Saw", you were always left with the thought that the 'bad guy' may return.  As the 'good guy' is fighting his or her way to survive, beating the 'poo poo' out of the adversary, that adversary keeps getting back up, which makes the 'hero' have to fight harder in order to be the ultimate survivor!!

We face CRAZY challenges many times in our lives and we wonder when drastic situations will end!  We put in a good fight, but that problem continues to rise and presents itself again and again, making a mockery of our efforts.  It takes PERSEVERANCE to truly fight the hardships that plague us.  It takes determination to get us through those times and it takes being honest with ourselves when the fight that we attempted was enough and we need to try harder.  We need to find that 'weak' spot in our situation and destroy it, so that WE are the winners!!  Keep fighting; keep pushing; keep desiring to overcome and win!!  The opponent will be taken down soon enough.  PERSEVERE!!!
