~:[CH15 - Day 53]:~ As High As You Can

Today was a work day. I tried to catch up on as much as I could. I finished uploading a few albums, edited a few posts, and then started sorting through a few projects. I finished up paperwork, took a class, and also prepped for my meetings ahead. It's easy to get weight down by everything especially when you see no end, but the reality of life is, we just need to jump as high as we can. Today was the final day of SEYO and it was great to see this jump ball. To see how much this team has developed over time has been amazing and has made me excited for what they ultimately become. However, no matter how good they become, as long as they do what they can, I know they'll have a group of supporters behind them. In life, we're not always going to be favored, we're not always going to win, and we won't always do well, but those things don't stop us from jumping. When the weight of the world tries to keep us down, instead of getting discouraged, we need to try and jump higher. It's easy to get defeated in life, that's why we have to become people who are hard to knock down (and keep down). My only hope is that these kids learn that and build that into their routine, as if they learn anything in life, learning how to be resilient would be one of the most useful lessons they would have. I was tired when I came home, but focused in and wrapped up MOST of what I wanted to do, but with a busy week ahead, I prepared myself as I know I'll need to be ready to jump as high as I can.
