Sometimes... With somethings... It's just not worth trying.
I've found this over the years. A long while ago, someone gave me a ring, and for a very long time after that someone left my life, I wore that ring as a reminder that 'no matter how hard you try, you may not get what you want'. That lesson did me well in some cases, and not-so in others.
I suppose this time is one of those "did me well"s. Things may be there, and things "might" go in the way I want them too, but I've pushed too hard and tried too much to force myself any further. I cannot burn myself out on a "might". I'm quitting while I'm ahead, even if I'm really no further than when I started.
But at least there is dancing to be done.
Terrance.
