30 Day Writing Challenge: Day Nine

Day 9: Post some words of wisdom that speak to you. 

"Defeat is only temporary, giving up is what makes it permanent." - Marilyn vos Savant

This is my all time favorite quote. Since I found it some years ago, I've used as my mantra anytime I'm feeling down. When I face a failure, mistake, or obstacle, I tend to wallow in it. To pull myself out of that mood I tell myself that life goes on, and that one incident didn't define my life. I used those words to remind myself that one defeat didn't mean the end, that it couldn't, unless I gave up.
