You hafta lose to gain. Do you know what that means? You may have heard it put another more specific way, you hafta spend money to make money. Same concept, but it applies to much more than just currency. Life is a rollercoaster. Everyone has ups and downs. EVERYONE. If you see someone that you covet that seems to have everything going for them, they sacrificed. They paid their dues in some way. It happens to everyone. You feel like crap, or you sacrifice time or money, or you fail at something, or you dont get that promotion. Everyone has these things happen. But with every low there is a high. With every new low, there is a new high to be found. Its just around the corner, its just up the street.. it will happen.

On a related note. I have always felt that everything that happens to you, every sacrifice, every hardship, and every lesson you learn is to prepare you for the next challenge. Life is a series of challenges. Some you win, some you dont. So even if you think you arent prepared for whatever challenge you are facing right now, you are. You are as ready as you are even going to be. Like i said. Sometimes you lose.. but even when you do, you walk away better and more ready for the next one.
