What do you fight for?

I’m one of those people who likes words and obvious signs I’m making progress. That means that I kind of suck when it comes to having faith. Yes, I am working on it — but I catch myself getting frustrated when things aren’t going my way. But somewhere deep in my hard head, I know I need to keep going. Actually, I think it is in my heart, not my head. I keep moving forward, making mistakes, moving back and then pressing on.

I’ve heard it called, “Your why.” That’s someone else’s catch phrase. But I get it. If you can be motivated by things bigger than yourself, you will succeed. I knew someone who turned inward at some point of her life. She was constantly trying to soothe some vicious inner pain. She died pretty much alone after alienating everyone who had loved her.  She had loving children who finally walked away after a constant stream of abuse. Hurt people hurt people.

Anyway, I was thinking about this as I got ready this morning. I thought of all my frustrations and I thought why I keep fighting. And thus this cartoon.
