What NOT To Do When Life is Hard

It’s okay to embrace the hard, to be bowed by the weight of it – for everything has its season.

The trick is to remember it’s not permanent. You will feel the warming sun on your face again.

You will.

Until then, walk on – keep moving – knowing where you are, what you are feeling, how you are suffering, has meaning.

As a writer, I use whatever shows up in my life to fuel my work. The good, the bad, the jazz-hands insanity.

Do this.

Whatever your endeavors are, use what you know, what you experience, to expand joy, even in the hard.

I say this often (because it’s true):

I’m compelled to shine the light on the threads that connect us – through content creation and sales copy – instead of the vast gulf that divides us.

We are stronger together, no matter how terrifying the flying debris appears or how soft the landing cushion feels. We are stronger knowing we aren’t alone.

That’s why I write.

You aren’t alone.

You’ve got me! You’ve got us!

Accept the hard, but only for a moment.

Once you’ve come to grips with what is, with what must be done to overcome, get back to scouring your world for any excuse not to jump.

Life sucks (at times). Don’t jump.
