“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands
in moments of comfort and convenience, but where
he stands at times of challenge and controversy.”
Martin Luther King, Jr.
The going gets tough sometimes. There is a lot of tough going in life,
and when we feel that way we just need to keep going. It will inevitably
get better. We will be the better person or better for it because we kept
going. Struggled through and never faltered. It is like mile two in a 5K
race or mile nine in a half marathon or mile 18 in a marathon, there
is always a tough stretch, a wall, but if we push on, we will reach new
heights. New horizons. New levels. We will get the job done. It is not
given to us on a silver platter. It is not worth it if it was. We must earn
it. Then the reward is worth it. Then we feel the sense of worthiness.
The sense of accomplishment. We did it. As Winston Churchill said,
“we have just got to keep buggering on!”
