I Fall Down--Go Boom!

The other day I tripped and fell over a little plastic garbage can in my office. This is the result of the fall. Yes, it hurts. Don't worry, no harm was brought to the garbage can during this event!After doing this I automatically thought of how I could turn this into a blog post. (Are you surprised?) It made me think that sometimes during our lives, we trip and fall and get physically hurt. When we do, we pick ourselves up, do what we can do to fix things, and go on.

Sometimes throughout our lives we fall, spiritually or emotionally. When this happens we need to do the same thing. We need to pick ourselves up, do what we can do to fix thing, and go on. The thing is, that our mistakes have been paid for. We are not hopeless when we fall. All is not lost.

So, the next "fall" you take, just brush yourself off and go to the right person to help you.

Ouch! That's a deep bruise! Well, good thing you didn't hurt the garbage bin. :)
Very inspiring article and you're right. If we never get up after failing or falling, we will never move on in life.

So glad you didn't get hurt any worse than you did...and that the garbage can survived, too!!! Very good post, Ms. Karen!

Well good thing the bin didn't get hurt in the making of that bruise! Hopefully it's better now and you put some ice packs on it.
