so i know that at some point in our lives we’ve all heard the saying, “never give up, keep trying.” however, what does that really say to us and how do we really process that phrase? let’s see…. one definition of “trying” is… straining one’s patience and goodwill to the limit. now i don’t know about you, but to me that doesn’t sound like anything that i want to do, especially to the end of actually achieving something. so why are we always trying rather than doing?

Why Is Saying I Love You So Damn Hard
i love you guys and gals!!!! wow that was easy! now why is it so hard to say it in more intimate settings??? these are probably the 3 most simplest, most meaningful words in the history of man yet the most difficult to say aloud. we think it, we dream about it, we write it in cards and letters, we enjoy hearing it in songs, seeing it in movies and reading about it in books, yet we just can’t get up the nerve to say it aloud half the time. why is this?
