Sometimes It’s So Fucking Hard

By John Muldoon

Just to keep going… it’s brutal sometimes.

You want to quit. You want to give up.

The pain and struggle and frustration all feel so overwhelming. They make you feel small.

But that shit is a lie.

And you have to make a choice to just not listen to that voice that tells you to stop.

You have to keep pushing. Keep moving forward. No matter how much you think you can’t take it.

No matter how bad it hurts.

No matter what.

Sometimes it’s so fucking hard to keep pushing.

But it’s always worth it.

I know because I’ve bled my way to the mountaintop. I’ve stepped in my own tears and pushed through the pain.

Finding out what you’re really made of, that you have no limits, and that you’re stronger than you ever through possible… that shit is worth anything.

Never ever ever give up.
