Hard

Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't how hard you hit; it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done. Now, if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hit, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you are because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain't you. You're better than that!"
- Movie Quote from 'Rocky Balboa'

Hard decisions have to be made in life. Decisions one may never know if they were entirely correct, but you make the best choice you can with what you know. And as I feel now, on a wing and prayer that you made the right choice, you get back up and move forward the best you can! Doubt may remain, fear of incorrect decison may taunt you, but remaining undecided and in limbo was slowly sufficating you and preventing life from going on. I have officially taken the worst hit in my life . . . and now it will be to see where I go from here. Do I keep moving forward or will I turn at some point in the future, unhappy with how it all turned out and point a finger saying if only he/she could have . . . . I will not be a victim. At times we have to make choices that are not pleasant, and that will be hard no matter what the choice.

Here is to finally KNOWING my WORTH, and FINALLY GOING OUT and GETTING WHAT I AM WORTH!!!

Your title says it all Janan. Some things in life are just hard. I love that talk from Conference "Hope ya know we had a hard time." We are thinking of you and hope things improve now that you've made a decision.

I hope you are doing well. From the sounds of the post seems like you are making some tough decisions. We recently made a big decision and had done all the right things; pray ask follow through. After a month or so everything "seemed" to fall apart. A year later, I realized things did not fall apart but were the way they were supposed to be. Just know that if you make the decision in the Lord's way, it is always the right decision and you don't need to doubt it at all. You will be in my prayers.
