When all Hope is Lost...

...what do you do?
Give up?
Hide?
Run?
Fight?
Learn?
Listen?
Keep trying?
View it as the start of something greater?
"At the beginning of every success story is a story about a really crappy, depressing, and seemingly bottomless pit experience. Seriously. Think about it. You can't have a really good tear jerking success story unless someone has started from some chasm of despair and then brought themselves out of it and are now rich, happy, and thriving.
So, if you're having a rotten, seemingly foreboding, dejecting time in your life right now, it could be the beginning of your success story. Think about that for a moment. Don't you feel better already?"

To quote Stephanie further: "Adversity builds character, wisdom and humility.  Yeah, it sucks at the time it's happening to you but in the end, if you learn the lessons and choose to grow from he experiences, it does make you a stronger person".

And THAT is why it's ok if we're a minority here.
And THAT is why it's ok to have an entire country be without diet coke (or gas for that matter) for a while.
And THAT is why I will never give up!


"Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all." - Dale Carnegie
