New Beginnings

Another day, another new beginning,
before there come another rest.
Failure isn’t sinning,
as long as you have done your best.

It’s been a little while since I’ve done any writing. It seems lately I’ve been taking a lot of breaks. But the breaks are necessary because there’s so much else that also needs to be done. I am learning to live within my limits. Spreading myself as thin as a crepe never did anyone any good. I do what I can, alternating the things that don’t get done, and that’s all I can do. Perhaps you feel the same way.
