Perseverance
I began from the bottom. “It can’t be that hard” I told myself it’s just a stack of cards.
Okay so what, a breeze of wind knocked it over “ill do it again”
Alright so what, the door swung open and a draft caused it to fall “ill do it again”
I finally reached the top
(Laughing and criticizing in the background)
“Wow is she ever going to give up?”
“No joke what’s the point?”
“Ill ignore it” I kept repeating to myself “this is only a stack of cards”
“Quick quick she only has one last card take a picture”
(Fewsh) the cards fell.
I again started from the bottom “ill do it again”
“I finished it”
(Person talking)
“What was the purpose in stacking those cards? “
“To finish, not give up”
