In life, in career, in relationships, in parenthood, there are highs and lows. The highs seem fleeting. The lows linger. They consume. Time slows and thoughts wander. For those that fight through the lows. The miscommunication. The angst. The complications and afflictions that life hands out. There is a threshold. There is a point in which the fighting and persistence and dedication begin to pay off. We rarely look back at this moment as a specific inflection in our journey, rather, it is a feeling that is delivered over time. But make no mistake, the breakthrough created a new world. A world full of hope and opportunity. Life is a series of breakthroughs.
