Perseverance

Work through it, push through it.  How many times do we hear this throughout our lives? "You can do this"  Sometimes those words are of encouragement and sometimes a taunt.  If it is not something we really want to do or think we should do, what do we lose trying to prove something?  More, harder, longer, conquer, conquest, do, do, do.
As I was looking at the word Perseverance, smack dab in the center is 'sever.'  Embattled, what do we lose of ourselves? Do we walk away or continue to push through?  When is enough, enough?

    one thing maturity has taught me is to look at the pinnacle. What idiot decided that was the goal? There isn't anything there, Can't eat a view. Can't rest on a point.

    Another person's agenda shouldn't necessarily be ours.
