Sometimes, when in a rough patch it feels as if we’re being pushed toward a cliff. No matter how hard we try, it seems that there’s very little we can do about it.
In this case, the best thing to do is to go the way the rough patch is pushing us, in spite of it seeming like we’re headed over a cliff.
Why?!
Because of two reasons: (1) it isn’t a cliff at all, it’s an optical illusion or (2) we actually have wings and we can fly!

You’re homework today is to stop resisting the rough patch, the difficulty, the challenge. Fully embrace it and go where it’s leading, learn what it’s teaching you, and keep your mind and heart open so you can receive all the gifts it has to give you.
You can do it, I’m sure of it!
I’m so proud of you—you’re bravery is inspiring!
Your Friend and Pep Pal,
