Perseverance

I'm working late tonight.

Not because I goofed off today. I worked hard all day too.

I just have more work than I have time to do it in. So I persevere.

It's like Newt Gingrich once said: “Perseverance is the hard work you do after you get tired of doing the hard work you already did.”

How very true. Fortunately, I have more perseverance today than I have attitude about blowing it off and joining my husband for a movie.

Takeaway Truth

The year is young, but I think I already need a vacation.
