We can do hard things

I've just ordered Glennon Doyle's love warrior book, that has the strapline "we can do hard things". I feel I've had to do a few hard things recently and it's excruciating, it will be fab to get some encouragement from reading the book. It will also increase my pile of books I'm looking forward to reading. Maybe I'll curl up with them on Sunday afternoon. It will be my birthday, I as yet have no plans and the weather forecast is rubbish, so my vague notions of taking my son and dog on an exciting walk, or going for ice cream, are not necessarily a goer. Of course I could do another hard thing and put out there an open invitation for people to come join me to watch some dvds from my childhood (bod, the flumps, that kind of thing), but it's a gamble cos if no one comes I will have to deal with that rejection. And I would have to check we still have something to play dvds on.  Hmmm, decisions. I'm not keen on them.

So I went for it. I tend to opt for what's hard rather than easy, and feel the feelings anyway. So far I have no-one definitely able to come. So yup, it's hard. Got to keep the faith tho.
