Sometimes You Have to Fight

I’m just pooped out.

I’m exhausted from trying my hardest and never being able to attain the “good enough” status.

The expectation is set incredibly high.

I do…and buy…and sacrifice…and do more…only to be disappointed at the end of the day. It’s impossible to give everything I’m made of without losing all that I’ve put blood, sweat, and tears into and sacrificed so much for.

I just tired of it.

Knowing the regret will be inevitable makes risking the resentment a small price to pay.

I signed up for this. This is what I chose.

I never thought about the trials or heartaches, I just jumped in. It was my responsibility and for responsibility sake I’m willing to meet up at the flag pole.

You are worth it to me.

I absolutely love this post, especailly the firs three lines. Raw honesty but it's the way I feel as well about so many of my family relationships. Thanks for this post.
