born to try...

All our lives we are encouraged to give things a "try"... to not shy away from new challenges... to step up to the plate and swing with all our might hoping for a home run... but more often than not, my trying results in a pile of mistakes. Some I have learned from and others I only think I have learned from only to discover I still cannot overcome them.

It's true what people say about a boat with a rudder never gets anywhere without a paddle or a motor sending it on it's way. But this time I have paddled so far that I may have lost my way. I could sit around and ask myself why I keep doing this, and whether or not I will ever learn, but the fact of the matter is... I'm human. As such, I am prone to make mistakes. Simply put, yes, even I make mistakes. I have found that though I am a woman and at times I can be super, I will never be Superwoman. But one thing is for sure, one cannot sit in their boat with the paddles/motor never touching the water all their lives because they are afraid of where it might take them. So whatever the future holds, mistakes or no, life is meant to be lived... meant to be tried. Don't let your past get in the way of the future.
