~:[CH6 - Day 95]:~ The Ups and Downs

~:[CH6 - Day 95]:~ The Ups and Downs
Life is full of them. Sometimes things are good and we're floating along and the next, we're down on the ground, icing our injuries away. If we floating along our entire life, we'd be privileged and when a difficult situation came our way, we may not know exactly what to do. Life is about figuring out what to do in tough situations. We all have those stretches of time where things are just not going right, but those who are the strongest, are those who have suffered the most hardships. They have been knocked down and have gotten back up again and again. While it takes a good support group around you to help you back up, ultimately, those tough times are what make you better able to handle what is ahead. With time and care, the pains of the past will slowly disappear and while other pains may appear, you'll be prepared for what's ahead. Fear not what is ahead, as the tests that lie ahead are just opportunities to learn and grow and to become someone who can rise up to a challenge. There will be disappoints, but in those disappointments are opportunities to find greatness; a greatness that lies within you. As I was surrounded my by athletes today, as upset as I was at them for a moment, I saw an opportunity for them and was thankful that I have such a wonderful group of athletes to work with everyday. Everyday will not be like a bed of roses, but knowing that they will all one day bloom is enough for me at this moment.
