Nobody’s going to do your life for you. You have to do it yourself, whether you’re rich or poor, out of money or raking it in, the beneficiary of ridiculous fortune or terrible injustice. And you have to do it no matter what is true. No matter what is hard. No matter what unjust, sad, sucky things befall you. Self-pity is a dead-end road. You make the choice to drive down it. It’s up to you to decide to stay parked there or to turn around and drive out.
Quote by Cheryl Strayed from her book: TINY BEAUTIFUL THINGS
REFLECTION:
- Are you waiting for someone to do your life for you?
- Have you driven down the “self-pity road?”
- Have you “parked” on a dead end street?
- Are you willing to turn around and drive out?
- What does the turn-around look like?
- DRIVE OUT!
