Being rejected is something we all resent, it stops us from taking risks and challenges because of the very fear that we might be shot down and stopped in our tracks. Rejection can come to us in every area of life, but often people talk about being rejected by love I say love (the feeling) as opposed to being rejected by a loved one (the person) because the feeling is what prompts us to take the step forward and it is this lack of feeling that causes the other person to retreat thereby hurting us, therefore it is love that betrays and rejects us over and over again.
It is the strong of us that rise above the storms of rejection and those that come short of strength may sink to a downward spiral that many of us cannot imagine, however,failure isn't about falling down, its about not rising up again and it is important to be conscious of our state of mind because we often run the risk of thinking that our shortcomings in life are our fault.
But I am not talking about love here as the boy/girl thing we see thrown in our face in the media. I'm talking about the love one could have say for a vocation or calling and then deciding that all our strength and devotion would be to achieving whatever that dream is but often, these things are not in our control; if its a job, somebody does the selecting and they can decide that we are not good enough and this can happen even when we think we are the best there could be.
There is need for rock solid strenght and determination to rise above this, it is the strong of us that can keep pressing on, pushing on until we reach our mark. So today friend, if you have been rejected and you know you are made for whatever it is you been deprived, don't give up just yet push on just a little more, reflect and find what might be holding you back and when you find it, fix it and try again and don't forget, all we need is one foot in the threshold of the door and our dreams would be on the palm of our hands.
