Thought For The Day is a quote from Yoda: “Do. Or do not. There is no try.” Words to live by.
Over my time on this earth I’ve seen many people give up when they hit hard times. I know from experience that that’s tempting when the path ahead seems bleak. Persevere, if you can.
Be stubborn. Don’t surrender. Work hard. Beat the odds. And the sun will come out tomorrow.
Being optimistic requires a conscious choice to keep moving forward. In spite of setbacks. It is not always easy, and the curve balls thrown by life can make anyone stumble. That’s not weakness. But it is where stubborn bloody-minded refusal to surrender comes in.
Only one of these photos was taken before my stroke. I’ve lived a lot of life since then. If I can, you can.
Onwards, people. Onwards.
