'Tenacity'
Good Morning,
Fellow Readers and Authors, I hope you are all well, and enjoying your day wherever you are in this world.
Last weekend came and went in the blink of an eye, and due to my work commitments, I was unable to write my weekly post.
When I say work commitments, these were not of a literary nature. I wish.
No, my weekend involved climbing up and down a ladder propped up on the side of my trusty motorhome ‘Vera2’.
Each year I have the pleasure of maintaining the hatches, the solar panels, and all of the other features adorning the roof.
The build up of organic matter in a twelve month period can be quite considerable, especially when you have been moored up beneath trees in the forest.
There had been the possibility of pressure washing this expanse of mobile real estate, however that option fell through, and I was subjected to cleaning the entire roof by hand.
Never one to turn down a challenge, there were moments last Saturday, when I could have comfortably thrown the sponge down. The weather stayed fine though, however the temperature was barely 2c.
I have added a link of the before and after, which having thawed out now, I am proud of my tenacity to say the least.
Tenacious is a most positive term. If someone calls you tenacious you're probably the kind of person who never gives up and never stops trying.
Though I am sure we have all arrived at that point when we have considered ‘throwing down that sponge’.
Those of you who write, have almost certainly been there. I have, and last Saturday was a good example, though it didn’t involve writing a novel.
When I sat down and thought about it, there have been countless other occasions when I have felt like hurling that ‘sponge’ and giving up. Life on the road has it’s moments, and not all of them lift your heart.
However, that tenacity keeps percolating back to the top, and wins over that alternative of giving up.
My advice to you is this. Never give in. Finish that manuscript, complete that script, be tenacious, for the alternative is very simple.
One day you will look back and say to yourself ‘if only.’

May I offer our sincere thanks once again, to those of you adding one of the ‘Our Blue Orange’ series to your bookshelves over the week.
Thank you for your support, it is much appreciated.
Stay safe, and keep reading and writing, and most of all, follow your dreams whatever they may be. 😊
Best Wishes
