Never Give In

"Never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never-in nothing, great or small, large or petty - never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy."

 -Sir Winston Churchill

 

I saw this today and felt something. 
I am going through a pretty hard time in my life right now.
It's taking a lot for me to still be strong.
I go to bed at night thinking,
"I swear I am not this strong."
I wake up in the morning thinking,
"I don't think I can handle another day." 

But, I'm not giving in.

  1. I'm hitting a rough patch, myself. Thank you for sharing it. It's beautiful. Both the quote, what you wrote and the picture.
    I hope you handle it and get stronger in the end.

  2. Big hug, Rachael. :( I know you've been going through a lot and I can tell by your words, because I have depression and while you may not, I can tell you are going through a depressive time. I won't ask you what's going on, or if you do have depression, as none of that is my business BUT if you need to talk with a like-minded girl, give me an e-mail, okay? lariatsandlavender@gmail.com

    I know everything will brighten up for you, just keep holding on and doing what you can, day to day. Take one day at a time and realize you're in control of your true destiny. <3

  4. One of my favorite quotes is "If you are going through hell, keep walking." One foot in front of the other. You'll get yourself out of this space and where you need to be. You can do this!

  6. You are stronger than you think. I have been through some very tough times in my life, and thought I would never make it through. But believe me when I say, you will come out stronger when it's all said and done.

  7. You will get through this. I'm having a hell of a time with things lately, we can get through it together. You are immensely talented, and your art and creativity will help you, both financially and mentally. Listen to Dory and just keep swimming.
    I'm almost always on Facebook, you can send me a message if you ever need to vent/cry/complain/whatever. I'll always listen.

  8. That is a great attitude to have. You know..the wheel of fortune be it material, spiritual or otherwise...never stops turning. It goes against everything in the laws of nature for it to ever stop or stay in one place. Therefore, common sense tells us that if the wheel of fortune is always in constant motion be it moving slow or fast that which is down must come up and that which is up at some point has to go down. Never give in to hard times, their temporary, their learning experiences, and bad times big or small help us really appreciate the good for me know how bad it could be! You are young and bright, creative and an intellectually deep thinker..you will be fine and all bad things will pass. Keep that positive vibe of never giving in close to heart! :)
    I have had days and nights like that myself..hence I know this is true. I'm 41 now...and I wish someone had told me what I just told you when I was your age! :)
