I Get Knocked Down But I Get Up Again



"It's not whether you get knocked down; it's whether you get up." ~ Vince Lombardi

So basically, what I hear you saying, Mr. Lombardi, is that it’s inevitable; I’m going to get knocked down.

hook…jab… parry… combo… hook… jab… parry…

…rabbit punch…

…I’m so totally down for the count.

“Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee!”

So deceptive. Why I thought that was a pretty butterfly flitting over to say hello. Little did I know, that was no butterfly AND it stung me!

Why do some folks seem to possess very little self control, temperateness, or love? Ever fascinating fact of life.

But you know what? Despite it all, I’m okay with these folks who are seemingly incapable of living self-less, mild mannered, love-exuding lives.

There is always hope.

No need to throw in the towel… I could quite possibly be saved by the bell.

I may just stand to fight another round.

My coach is outstanding and the referee fair.
