Effort

I'm a giver.

I give 100% to everything I do, and to the people that matter most to me.
I put all of myself into whatever I'm doing at the moment and I put all of myself into building and sustaining relationships.

Sometimes this blows up right in front of me, bringing me down with it momentarily. And whenever I'm down I always find myself thinking that it is my fault. "If I focused more on myself, maybe this wouldn't happen."

But here's the truth: I would rather give 110% and fall on my face, than not try hard enough and wish I had.
