When the Going Gets Tough

...the tough throw their hands up in the air and scream “FUCK!!!”


But then they roll up their sleeves and get to work fixing whatever shit they need to in order to right the wrongs of life.
Its no secret that life can be hard sometimes, maybe even for some of us, it’s even hard a lot of the time.
But here’s a little secret you probably aren’t reminded of enough:


There is something to be said for your resiliency, your innate strength that helps you overcome obstacles, deal with problems and get through the tough times.
You are battle tested and have proven that you have the power to overcome whatever is thrown your way.   Even if you do not feel equipped to deal with the problem that you are facing, that mountain that is in your way is there because God knows you can handle it and someone else can’t. Some people might chalk this up to some sort of cosmic “test” (and maybe it is, what the hell do I know?) - I however, would categorize it as an experience that is both designed and destined to make you stronger.

I also realize that seeing any negative experience in this light, while you are going through it, can be near impossible. But hold it in your heart, tuck it in your pocket- whatever you want to do with it, keep that notion safe, because you will overcome.
