The Beauty of Trying

Resilience in Everyday Efforts

By Sarah DanielPublished 9 days ago 4 min read

The Strength in Small Efforts

If there is one thing I take pride in about myself, and everyone who is struggling just like me, it is the fact that we try. We try to get out of bed even when it pulls us stronger than gravity. We try to choose the best outfit for the day even if all we ever want is to stay in our pajamas. We push ourselves to socialize even when isolation gives us more comfort. We try to live even if living feels like a waste of time.

The small things that we do just to see if there’s even an ounce of hope left are also the source of hope itself. They fuel the mind and heart, reminding us that even in our worst condition, we can still be someone: someone who tries, and that’s good enough. We might not be someone great today, but we’re trying to be, and I think that’s beautiful. There is beauty in the becoming. Planting and watering your own seeds to become exquisite is worthy of admiration.

The Importance of Taking Breaks

Obviously, we’re human, and there will be times when even trying feels extremely difficult. So, take a break. The biggest blessing that the world has offered is the freedom to be who we want to be, the freedom to control what goes on in our minds, and the freedom to let go of what’s weighing us down. If today, you don’t want to try, then so be it. The sun will shine again, and the moon will always show up, even half full. So when things get a little bit easier, even just a little, let’s show up for ourselves.

The Marvels of Life Through Trying

Trying exposes us to the marvels of life. It gives us a glimpse of what it is like to just ... live.

It’s easier said than done, especially on our most vulnerable days. We will trip and fall, ending up more wounded than we already are. But I believe that the most remembered soldiers are the ones who stood their ground despite the enormous amount of bullets. We’ll never know where this takes us, but I am pretty sure it’s far from the streets of regret. Trust me, you wouldn’t want to be there.

Leaving a Legacy of Effort

Leave a mark; let your legacy be passed on as the person who survived by trying and truly lived before dying. As long as the earth continues to spin, we will try and try again.

Embracing Resilience and Courage

The act of trying, in itself, is an acknowledgment of our resilience and a testament to our courage. Each day, as we push ourselves to take one more step, make one more effort, we are building a foundation of strength and perseverance. It is in these moments, these seemingly insignificant attempts, that we find our true selves.

Progress Over Perfection

Life is a series of trials and errors, of attempts and failures. It’s in the trying that we learn, grow, and become who we are meant to be. Each effort, no matter how small, is a step towards a greater understanding of ourselves and the world around us. It is through trying that we discover our passions, our strengths, and our capabilities. It is through trying that we connect with others, build relationships, and create memories.

Finding Beauty in the Journey

There will be days when the effort feels overwhelming, when the weight of the world feels too heavy to bear. On these days, it’s important to remember that taking a step back is not a sign of weakness, but a necessary part of the journey. Rest, recharge, and when you’re ready, continue the fight. The sun will rise again, and with it, a new opportunity to try.

Trying is not about perfection; it’s about progress. It’s about recognizing that we are all a work in progress, constantly evolving and changing. It’s about embracing the journey, with all its ups and downs, and finding beauty in the process. The beauty of trying lies in the resilience it builds, the hope it fosters, and the strength it cultivates.

Celebrating the Effort

In a world that often celebrates perfection and success, it’s important to remember that there is immense value in the effort itself. Trying is an act of bravery, a declaration of hope, and a testament to the human spirit. It’s a reminder that even on our darkest days, we have the power to create light.

Continuing the Journey

So, let’s continue to try. Let’s continue to push forward, even when the road is rough and the destination uncertain. Let’s continue to believe in the power of our efforts and the potential within us. Let’s continue to find beauty in the journey, and in the simple act of trying.
