It Gets Rough Sometimes

It has been a rough week.

On top of trying to start a business, I have a lot of other goals I'm working to accomplish. Goals that I've only recently decided to seriously pursue... Just like starting a business.

In the midst of my efforts, I see where I am at as of today. Clearly. I mean, it's astonishingly clear. Like a window made of air, cleaned with Windex.

I am humbled.

I've had goals before, but in my present stage of adulthood, my shortcomings scream out at me. They band together and attempt to stifle my pursuit of improvement. The dissolution of the veil of invincibility couldn't be any more apparent than it is right now.

Even with this revelation, I still see the light. 

Yes, there is a bit of cliche and corniness to that statement. Anyone who knows me knows that I can be corny at times.

There's still a tinge of hope lingering inside this clouded mind of mine. I'm not sure of its origin and I don't know what feeds it, but it survives. Eventually, my desire for being better will sustain it and encourage it to grow. 

Maybe then I will have strengthened my weaknesses and patched up a few flaws. Maybe then the dreams of the little boy, teenager, young adult, and experienced adult that dwell inside will begin to come to fruition.

Until that time, I will continue to learn and strive to become better.

I mean, isn't that what life is all about?
