Last ball victory

YoYo,
Finally ! Those who are close to me and matter, know what I am talking about, those who dont have a clue, have probably been so out of touch with my situation that it really doesnt make a difference. Anyway a long-bloddy battle has come to an end, or at least a temporary truce. Its only a small temporary arrangement like a bandage is to a bleeding wound, good enough for the time being but not a permanent solution. Saves life, will do for the time being.I am not complaining.
It was a very frustrating period for me,perhaps my blogs indicate the same.But like Steve Waugh, my hero, who fought till the bitter end in hopeless situaitions, so did I. I think the resoluteness helped.How you end matters, not how you start ! Perhaps its true that its not talent but determination that is the the most important attribute. I will never know because I always envy talented people, who seem to have everything laid out for them, but not unsurprisingly they seem to lack the perseverance aspect. I think god balances everything, giving one in abundance and supplying partly the other.I think the past one year introduced me to some of my strengths and made me aware of glaring weaknesses. I made it just in the nick of time, with not much to spare. For that I am grateful.
And in the end an inspirational quote from Socrates
"Tentative efforts lead to tentative outcomes. Therefore, give yourself fully to your endeavors. Decide to construct your character through excellent actions, and determine to pay the price for a worthy goal. The trials you encounter will introduce you to your strenghts. Remain steadfast... and one day you will build something that endures, something worthy of your potential"
Amen !
