Backing Down

I feel like I’ve been trying too hard to make things work.

I don’t know where the line is between trying to force a situation to happen and to just let things be. 

Like this weekend when I drove to Albany, NY and tried to climb, but it rained. And then thundered. And then hailed.

Or when I drove to Nanticoke, PA and tried to climb, but it rained. And then it poured. 

And I wonder when I should have stopped. When should I have backed down? When do you give it up for bad job and just let it be. 

I don’t know. 

I don’t know if I ever will.
