Be Brave Enough to Try Again

Over the past few weeks, I have been struggling to keep up with life, school, and all that is in between. And yes, JS frameworks as well. [Laughs in hidden].

But most notably, the pressure of getting good at something, and the disappointment of falling short on the promise to yourself, can at times leave you with a sense of dread. A sense that maybe trying isn’t worth it, if the outcome remains the same.

I like to tell myself, that after being curious, I should be brave.

For come what may, tainted with the stench of failure and regret, then I hope that my willingness to try might be of some solace.

I am translating it to a tangible deed such as getting good at web dev in general, but what frustrates me the most is that I am not good at being good.

I succumb to impulses that leave me bereft of colour, with a fear of even trying again, if the inheritance of any endeavour under the sun is oblivion.

But I want to try again.

Try to master my craft, and be proud of my work.

Try to be good.

For if greatness was never in store, then goodness will do.

The world was very old indeed

When you and I were young.
