"Courage doesn't always roar"

"Courage doesn't always roar"

this quote was first introduced to me my senior year of high school when my Director and Assistant Director called me into the office after a drama club meeting that day. I of course thought I was in trouble but I sat in the office to listen to what they had to say and My director explained to me that they have been watching me struggle recently and wanted to remind me that She and the assistant director were and would always be there for me as I follow my dreams. I was presented with a gift that had 2 frames and a mug all including a powerful quote on them and a card- that had a lot of positive supportive things in there but this quote stood out to me the most. throughout the year my assistant director would constantly remind me by using this quote through a text or a conversation. It was always a way of knowing that "trying again tomorrow" means a clean piece of paper in your story of your life.

Although a lot has changed since then- that specific quote still sits on my makeup vanity to remind me that there is always a new day right ahead of me if the day I'm enduring isn't how I wanted it to turn out.

That's what I want to discuss- That some days you just seem like your screwing everything up and you can't catch a break. Good news- Its not the end of the world! you always have tomorrow. Today for me was just one of those days. I had a lousy 7 hour shift at work and even through we were practically dead the entire time, I just couldn't get anything right. I messed up giving back change, I forgot to add a lady's coupon, I rang up an expensive item twice, the list gets longer too. But one Lady said something to me that included the word, "courage' and that quote popped into my head reminding me that tomorrow is a new day and today's mistakes won't matter. That was the one thing that got me through tonight.

So my advice- everyday is not going to be perfect. There are going to seem like days where you feel like everything wrong is somehow your fault. Well from experience, that honestly makes your feel worse than better. So take a deep breath, and remind yourself that tomorrow is a new day and you will achieve it all and then some. Think of it this way- even super heroes have bad days. And honestly it wouldn't be as good of a feeling if you didn't have those bad days to push you to make it to tomorrow. Also it always can make life a little more interesting.

 So if your feeling like today was not your day- well tomorrow will be another chance. Just before you try to give up think of this "Courage doesn't always roar, sometimes courage is the small voice inside that says, I will try again tomorrow"
