Picking myself up

What are you most proud of in your life?

I don’t mean to sound corny but if I had to choose one thing I am most proud of, it would be my get up and go attitude. Like everyone one in this world, I have had my fair share of knocks in life, times when I have had to step back, take cover, and reflect. However, what truly matters is picking yourself up and moving forward.

You can’t always do it alone. Friends and family make a world of difference, and finding things that help you escape the everyday, whether it’s exercise, music, or something else you love, can really lift you up.

It is that resilience, that quiet strength to keep going, that I am most proud of.

Wayne’s Word – Resilience

What’s the trait you value most about yourself?

It’s a little nod to Wayne’s World, but instead of ‘party time, excellent’ (if you are aware of the cult nineties classic) I will be diving into one WORD each day. It could be something I learned, something bizarre that happened, a favourite word that I have rediscovered or just a thought that won’t leave me alone.

If you’re joining in on today’s word, feel free to use this tag to connect your post to the series: #WaynesWord

Today’s word is RESILIENCE.

The trait I value most about myself is resilience. Life doesn’t always go as planned, but I’ve learned how to bend without breaking, to keep moving forward even when things get tough. Resilience isn’t about not struggling, it is about finding the strength to get back up again and keep on moving, even if not forward, just keep moving. Sometimes life can feel like 1 step forward, 2 steps back but you will get there in the end.
