On giving it all or giving nothing at all…
There’s certain situations, which allow us to prove ourselves work, relationships etc, we got the choices of doing our best, just average or don’t even try at all. Right?
What I’ve noticed is that sometimes it doesn’t depend on you; a person can give their all and still wouldn’t be enough.
It’s weird I was talking about it this morning on how people that don’t even try sometimes do better than those who really want to make things work .
So how is it done? As of late with all the thing going on in my life , I became really positive and very willing to try and give myself chances in areas where I know would be hard for me to be comfortable..
But tell me isn’t it disappointing when you try to achieve something really hard and you see it all just crumble down, and ever effort you did every night you spend thinking about how to improve, just being completely useless..
Maybe I think too much about these things, but I guess sometimes is better to just do what has to be done without trying to be great , learn to be neutral.. If you are reading this you might perfectly understand what I’m talking about or be asking yourself …” Man I should get to work and close this thing”
The things I talk about are the guy working extra hours just to check the meeting material is perfect.
The girl who thinks of ways to keep a relationship.
The student who decides to wake up at 3am to study a bit more before the test.
I wonder if sometimes all this is worth it… because sometimes (and don’t think I’m a pessimist” what has to happen , happens no matter how hard you try to avoid it or to try to make it better.

sometimes writting your feelings relaxes you…just like talking to a person whom you wanted to talk, opening yourself up and pouring out everything and the end you feel like the wet n fresh earth after thunder storms n rains!
Cheers!
My momma used to say, “It takes two to tango!” meaning if one partner isn’t really putting out any effort, the dance is gonna’ look sloppy or half-hearted at best. Sometimes life just kicks us in the butt with delays, sidetracks and obstacles, but how we handle each of these develops our character so much it’s always worth it in the end.
You are a fine artist, but most of the best artists of our history struggled to publish their art, be accepted and make a living at the same time. It’s that struggle, however, which made them great. Sometimes it killed them like Van Gogh, but mostly it created in their attitude a determination not to give into convention and move on to their vision.
Your story entry inspired me to think about some of my own struggles with this, thanks for being so honest.
Let me begin with, your jewelry is fabulous! In response to this blog entry, as someone who went back to school and for the last two years has struggled to do everything “perfect”, your comment resonates with me. I now realize that sometimes the best thing you can do for yourself is “good enough”, and then move on to the next thing! The next thing might be what is REALLY worth the effort.
