Rough Day but I'm Better Now

Some days are just like today. If upon waking up this morning I was told what I would go through, I would probably just as soon go back to sleep or at least pretend to. It's not like it was anything traumatic, in fact all it boils down to is being told by two different sources that my best wasn't good enough for them.



Now, I can't say why other people's opinions mattered so much that it grieved me to be told that, but I can say that it did. It may be that outside confirmation of my inward assessment of mediocrity was too much to bear. I strive for excellence in all that I do but I also do too much. There is a point where quantity affects quality and I seem to have passed that tipping point.

Oh well. Life goes on. Tomorrow's another day and I'm pretty sure it won't be like today. That's the gift God has given us, the promise of tomorrow. Whether it is tomorrow here in this life, which at least has the possibility of being better than today; or the eternal tomorrow in heaven with Him, which will be better than today.
