Note to self

‘I think I’m more beautiful now, more so than I have ever been both inside and out.

It’s not about what we look like, it’s about how we impact those around us.

See the worth in yourself and your imperfections as your Superpower- because they are the strongest attributes you have.

Whenever you fall remember- Comeback arenas are not where Hero’s are made, they are where Hero’s come.’

My Sisyphean nightmare

Like Sisyphus the king of Corinth in ancient Greek mythology condemned to continuously roll a boulder up a hill for eternity, so do I feel I have been condemned to the same fate.

Only mine is a nightmare that I can’t seem to wake up from or probably I’m awake but trapped in a living nightmare.

Faced with impending and unavoidable failure and disgrace like a deer caught in the headlights of an oncoming truck or moth drawn fatefully to the flames that will undeniably kill it.

When backed into a corner with no foreseeable exit I will like the cellist of Sarajevo, Vedran Smailović who during the siege of Sarajevo, continued to play Adagio in G Minor with grace in the midst of chaos and death; lift my chin, dress well and face the inevitable with Grace.
