After you've done all you can, you just stand

So many times are we faced with a situation where we are being challenged with a situation. Sometimes that situation is a lot harder than we expect it to be. Many times these challenges test us to our limits. They push us to see just how far were willing to go. Just how much were willing to take before we've had enough. Once we reach that limit when we've had enough and we can't take anymore we throw in the towel and give up. Giving up isn't ideal, and no one wants to do it, but sometimes we are defeated and have no other alternative. Just because you've come to a point when you're defeated doesn't mean that it's over. Perhaps there is another way to accomplish the challenge or obstacle you've been presented with. For every obstacle there has to be an alternative route, and if there is no alternative route then you should probably abandon the challenge. But if there is an alternative way to accomplish the goal then all alternatives should be attempted before completely throwing in the towel. Have some faith in yourself and believe that you can accomplish anything. I preach this message today, needing to hear some encouraging words myself. Sometimes we just need to hear some encouraging words. And those are mine for today. Especially to those of you college students with finals this week. Best of luck to everyone.
