Perseverance, My Love for Living

Perseverance is an expression of my love for living. By continuously pursuing what I intend when the tides turn, I choose to accept and grow with the inspiration offered to me. Oppositions aren’t there to prevent me from succeeding, I accept them as subtle signs guiding me to pay attention to the whole and be conscious of my choices. It reminds me that I am a part of something greater and can only control myself.

Perseverance is more than a response to adversity. It is a deliberate choice to continue trying for a desired outcome. The hardship is the opportunity to grow. How I meet the challenge is my step toward an eventual treasure. I find no reason to avoid adversity when there is more to discover.

Everyone is meant to discover what they can do every time an opposition is met. Whatever unexpectedly happens directs us to what we're meant to pay attention to. Choosing to persevere is to consciously explore the possibilities.

When circumstances keep shifting and uncertainty rises, I am motivated to face a challenge because I think of every choice I make as the nutrients to what I am growing. Accepting hardship is an opportunity to participate in what is happening, even if I don’t yet understand. Working with what I don’t comprehend is my chance to discover how to become more. My choice to accept and work with challenges is my way of appreciating what life is offering and enjoying my journey. I live continuously choosing perseverance because I want to express how grateful I am to be alive!
