Hard Things

[ysabetwordsmith]

Life is full of things which are hard or tedious or otherwise unpleasant that need doing anyhow. They help make the world go 'round, they improve skills, and they boost your sense of self-respect. But doing them still kinda sucks. It's all the more difficult to do those things when nobody appreciates it. Happily, blogging allows us to share our accomplishments and pat each other on the back.

What are some of the hard things you've done recently? What are some hard things you haven't gotten to yet, but need to do? Is there anything your online friends could do to make your hard things a little easier?

At the top of a gravity well, looking down on a planet, I get scared (what if something de-orbits me?). Down where there's something to sit on or swim in, I'm usually much better off even though the view is more limited. I just barely handled the Saint Louis Arch the year my family went. And apparently that's the kind of experience people usually have in a space elevator...
