Sometimes your best won’t meet the goal.
Some days life will get in the way. Sometimes you won’t be able to swallow that last inch. There will come a day when your safeword rings through the air. A day when you work tirelessly, but can’t seem to finish all the things asked of you. A time when you try so hard, and find yourself watching as things crumble in your hand.
You’ll feel that you’ve failed. That you’ve failed yourself, failed him, and fallen short. You’ll want to believe that you aren’t enough.
But perfection isn’t the goal. He doesn’t need you to be perfect, and he doesn’t expect you to be. He needs your effort. He wants your devotion. When you try with everything you have there is no failure. Effort is the measure of success. Your best, is always enough.
