We may encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated. – Maya Angelou
I love the words by Maya Angelou, “We may encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.” I know by observation and experience that a defeat is only a setback, a stumbling point. It is not the end of the journey. It marks the beginning of the Journey.
It marks the beginning of the Journey.
It is the place where we get to rise and stride forward.
It is the place where we summon the courage to rejoin the quest.
It is the place where we indelibly stamp our character with a mark of who we are.
It is the place where we find out what we are made of.
It is the place where we stand, hand in hand, with all others of good will, who refuse to be defeated, who rise and again begin our journey.
