Never Give Up

I read an inspirational article today about Kathryn Stockett, author of The Help. The article, entitled “Kathryn Stockett's 'The Help' Turned Down 60 Times Before Becoming a Best Seller”, reminded me that everything in life is attainable with a lot of perseverance.

Samuel Beckett wrote: “Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better.” It is a motto I try to live by, although difficult at times. Rejection is a fearful thing, especially for artists whose livelihood is dependent on an intricately personal product.

I would like to think that all of my dreams are attainable. I just have to go after them.
