I've learnt to admire bowling pins this year.
Beacuse they get knocked down almost as often as I have this year - but manage to get back up all the time. Which in my case, these past few waning months has been entirely debatable.
I've also learnt to respect kites this year.
Beacuse they rise against the winds. Forget rising - I'd give anything to even flutter at the moment.
And I've also learnt to admire mushrooms.
Beacuse they've made it an art of growing in the dark. Instead of waiting for the light like some other people like me.
Its funny - the things that I learn and observe while I'm knocked down.
Knocked Down .. but not out.
So today, 20 days before the end of the year, I'm done.
I'm done with all the bullshit.
So I'm officially shaking my fist at the cosmos and saying - send me your worst and I'm going to give you my best.
No Retreat No Surrender.
Not today.
