Trying Counts

Trying Counts

There are days when trying feels like a whisper no one hears. Like all the momentum gained by efforts in the days leading up to this one disappears in a flash when one task or expectation goes unfulfilled. Like missing a post in a daily blog schedule. A flaw that undoubtedly goes unnoticed by everyone except for me. A small moment, but one that still matters. I tell myself that coming back the next day is enough though. Trying doesn’t always look like big bold moves or flashy projects. Sometimes it’s the quiet choice not to yield to the apathy that looms larger than ever before. Sometimes it’s the breath we take before the words come. Trying counts, even when it’s not all the time.
