How are you feeling about your thoughts and dreams lately? You know, it’s natural to feel down every once in a while. People tell me I’m a positive person, and I am most of the time, but like everybody I get down occasionally. Writing can be filled with a lot of rejections and waiting. Just this week, I was really let down by a client and wondered if I should give up writing all together and just do something else. Thankfully, my hubby is there to remind me why I do this. 🙂
The fact is, I write because I feel drawn to it, and also because I have found a way to make a living at it. It’s hard work, and I know that anyone else out there who is wondering if they should give up probably feels like I do once in a while. But don’t give up. Just don’t.
To that end, I found a quote that might inspire you.
“You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.”
― C.S. Lewis
This quote especially holds true for people who have had to put aside their dreams because of real life. You might think that maybe you’ve lost your chance, but how do you know? How do you know if you don’t try?
