Bouncebackability

I didn't invent the title, i came across it on a friend's FB status and i like it and intend to use it more often.

Bouncebackability. It's so descriptive

I think the luckiest people are those who have the ability to bounce back from any drawback. And now there's a word to describe their unique and irreplaceable quality. I believe myself to be one of those. And i am very grateful to once again be so lucky.

Any of us is vulnerable to daily hardships; from loss of a loved one to tax lawsuits to a cramped muscle to failure to find a good parking spot. Everyday we have to make the choice of whether to wallow over mishaps or simply bounce back to life. This bounce back is easier for some than others. But you know what? it's the best part of the whole ride. It's like making up after a fight. It is the positive turn of events, reassuring that things can only get better. Look at this this way, when you don't 'bounce back' you technically remain on the bottom. This bottom might be the bottom of your emotion wellbeing, the bottom of the workplace organizational chart, the bottom on the list of someones grace, and so on an so forth. Whatever it is we bounce back from, it means we're moving up/forward, which is a good thing. a great thing actually.

Im tired so im starting to not make any sense so i'll stop writing and hope you are still reading.

I'll leave you with another song though. I think i just might start inserting a theme song to every post, whaddya think?!
