Rushing

I have found in life we want to rush everything, fast food, the mail, growing up and the list goes on. I rushed into my second marriage instead of taking the time that was needed to grow our friendship, to grow who we were and to just grow and heal. I wanted things one way and that was to rush them.

I have found over the last year that somethings are worth waiting for, the more I want to run, the more I fall flat on my face, it is through patience and waiting that great things will happen. I can't plan what they are, but I do know that in time why I have waited will be shown. The process of learning this has not been easy, in fact it has been hell. Like a child learning to walk, they try and try again, falling and trying again, they don't give up and neither should we.

Have you fallen flat on your face? Have you gotten back up? Sometimes falling is not the hard part, it is the getting back up. But once you stand, learn and grow, make sure you don't fall the same way, because now is your chance to learn, it is your choice. Do you want to continue to walk the same path or is it time to learn from our mistakes? I wanted to learn, grow and change. That is what I have done, yes I stumble and yes I fall, but it is how I stand and learn that makes that fall a lesson.

Today remember we all fall, we all struggle, but it isn't the fall, it is how we stand up that makes a difference. Are you going to walk/run that path that caused you to stumble or today are you going to learn from your falls?
