Getting back up

      Sometimes we fall down. And sometimes staying on the ground is easier than getting back up. Sometimes it just feels better to take the hits laying down, than to get back up and fight back. Some days we just don't have the will to fight back. Then there are the days when we don't fall down, we just kind of pretend that the hits aren't coming and that everything is okay. We move forward, hoping that our ignorance of the problems will in fact solve them!
      Admittedly, I oft times take the path of ignorance, hoping that things somehow will take care of themselves. So far this hasn't worked out. For some unknown reason the universe is just not taking care of my problems for me. Which is just ridiculous, why shouldn't the universe stop what it's doing, and fix my problems for me? After all, I do a lot for the universe. You'd think it could stop by and fix some stuff for me! But, no, that's not how life works. In life we need to fix our own problems and issues. And that is hard.
       It's hard to own up to mistakes and to try and fix them. It's hard to say, "yup, this is on me," and go onto fix it! It is so much easier to just shrug and move on. The more times we do that, though, the more we have weighing us down and holding us back.
      Life is hard enough without us bringing ourselves down. Life hurts enough without us prolonging the pain. It is so much better for us to just curse under our breath and face whatever it is head on.
     Life can be a tough son of a bitch, but we're tougher. We're strong enough to face it head on and take it down.
