This girl is NOT quitting!

I was on my walk around Redondo and I came across this billboard which made me pause.


You Suck
I’ve quit on a few things in life. I won’t dwell the list is loooooong.

I’ve nearly quit on writing about seven million times, but that’s because the demons in my head tell me I suck. Sometimes I listen.
There are things I will never quit.


I won’t quit telling my grunty-teen that I love him. Even though he bristles when I do and does a plank when I pull him into a not-wanted hug. I never told my mom enough and I regret it. I hope some of this will stick with grunty-teen like World of Warcraft does to him.


I won’t quit the notion that there are more good people in the world than bad. Though Belgium gives way to a pause. If I quit then they’ve won. Nope, not on my watch you haven’t.



I won’t quit on forgiving myself for the things in my past, I can’t fix, the long list I didn’t accomplish today or catastrophes in my future I can’t foresee, but worry about.


Is there anything you won’t quit?

  2. If I'm lucky, life is long and comprised of many phases, so I try not to think in terms of quitting and more in terms of doing what makes the most sense for where I am at the moment. That said, I think it's unlikely I'm going to resume those guitar lessons I quit in sixth grade. ;)

  3. You are the sagest person I know, Samanthe. Your guitar and my ballet lessons are best left in the past. :)
