When the going gets tough and the building collapses around you.

What would you do? What would be your thoughts? If your life did a flip, a complete 180 and you were now standing on your head, and you couldn't see where you were going to land. You could not envision the path that this devastation might take you. Where will you go in the dark? Who do you see?
I do not ask these questions to receive an answer but to put your mind in motion to think about the what if's and test your mind's eye.

I have recently come to the conclusion that no one knows how they will react to tragedy. They may answer the question on how they think they would respond but 100% aren't entirely sure that their reactions will be the same. You wouldn't, I mean every situation is different, and the effects might ripple in various ways. Some stand in shock and others run for the hills. A flight or fight response. I believe that I would run, an instinctual reaction but I found that when the going gets tough, I do not turn my back with my "tail" between my legs and head for the hills where I believe it to be safe. I protect my own.

"Oh, you're a mom, you're just protecting your young" I can hear someone say.
While that might be true, I've watched those that haven't even interact with kids stick up and protect them at any cost. What's the excuse now?

As humans, we evolve and tap into unused abilities that we never knew that we had, when bad things happen, the adrenaline rushes, and we become superhuman.

Recently,
My future and possibilities available to me have been shaken, recent events have caused my plans to be now on hold. So now that my going has gotten rough can I become superhuman and face these challenges head on.

I want you all to look at any problems in your life no matter big or small they might be and tackle them anyway that you see fit. Life is too short to conform and abide by the bully or the things that are holding you back. I'm not saying go bat shit crazy and fight the boss that won't give you the promotion but show them that you deserve it all because you do.

No matter what challenges fall into our paths, we should never let them hold us back because all of us have potential that is greater than we realize.


Thanks, guys:)
Maddie.
