and perseverance have a magical effect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish.

Suppose you learned of a treasure to be had for the finding, and you even had a pretty good idea where to look. Suppose you set out and lost your way, and had to return home. Or suppose you actually found something that looked promising, but it turned out not to be the treasure you were seeking after all.

I know now, after fifty years, that the finding/losing, forgetting/remembering, leaving/returning, never stops. The whole of life is about another chance, and while we are alive, till the very end, there is always another chance. ~ Jeanette Winterson

If this treasure were something of immense value to you, wouldn't you keep on looking?
For example, if this treasure were love - a deep, abiding, satisfying love - wouldn't you keep on looking?

Giving up is the only sure way to fail.

In the realm of relationship, as in so many other areas, I am always inspired by the following story. In 1941, Winston Churchill visited Harrow, the school he had attended in his youth. Invited to give a speech, here's what he famously said: Never ever ever ever ever ever ever give up. Never give up. Never give up. Never give up.
|
If you've already found your treasure, glory in it, and thank your lucky stars each day of your life.
If you're still seeking, take heart from Winston's words.
