I think it is very easy for us to lose perspective in life and get discouraged. Too often we see a single victory as a finish line, or a single loss as a grave. The reality is that life is a long game. If it were a baseball game, there would be thirty thousand innings. (That’s one inning a day for more than eighty years.) If it were a race, it would be more than eighty thousand miles. (That’s a 5K every day.) If it were—You get the idea. We need to have the right perspective and remain positive because there are still a lot of at bats or miles ahead of us.
