Words of encouragement always gratefully recieved.
Having earned those green-striped blue ribbons with the those shiny "E's" on them, I know how high the hill is to climb, and there's no sneaking around that bad boy and exgressing in good order, either. I am going to be my own hardest critic, no matter what.
So, I'm feeling driven, and untill I get back to my comfort zone, delivering the mail consistently, I already know I'm going to be a bad example to others (since I know I can push myself). Which, too, is an annoyance, as we clearly need to bring more into the fold, and showing them is always better than lecturing them.
As the old quote goes, Lif so shorte, the Craft so longe to learn.
