The Domino Effect

I have had a weird, and oddly uplifting week. Certain movement has been made on the professional front, that has led to some movement on a long-cherished personal plan as well. Emboldened by this, and resulting from some weird emotional domino effect, I have taken an enormous chance. This is a giant Hail Mary. It's a penalty kick in over time with the scores tied. I have taken it, and I am really rather certain of failure. However, I am pleased with the fact that I have taken the shot at all. 2012 has been uneven so far, and it seems appropriate that some success should be tempered with failure, but I am gratified by the following truth: Success or failure, both will lead to personal growth. That is nothing to scoff at.
