Going Through Not Around

A lesson I've learned is that you must go through pain not around. Failure can lead to momentary pause, but one must get back on the horse and go through the pain. That seems to be the only way.

Two years ago, I quit. I quit from myself. I didn't make a plan, I just quit. I couldn't take what I was doing anymore. Mentally, I quit. The big lesson I've learned from this is that one must feel ahead, plan ahead, and value themselves to make the right decision for themselves before it's too late. 

Sometimes I fill my mind with too much. Too much of what other's are going through. Sure, it's easy for others to speak to me. Heck, I probably make it easy, but it's too much for me. I'm not a garbage disposal for emotions. People need to find their own way. I need to focus on myself, my goals, and where I want to go.

Through not around. That's where I feel I'm headed next.
