“Stop wearing you wishbone where your backbone ought to be.” ~Elizabeth Gilbert
Wow. That sure hits home if you’ve ever been called upon to do something hard that you just didn’t want to do. You wish it could be different, but you have to buck up and do what needs to be done. You know exactly what you have to do. You wish the situation would change. You wish it didn’t happen. Now you’re called upon to be strong. Stronger than you’ve ever had to be in your life, and for a very long time. All the wishing in the world is not going to change it. You simply have to do what you have to do and that’s all there is to it.
I fully understand. But my bones still keep getting mixed up.
And so, as another day goes by, I still wish…and…I have written.
