Crestfallen

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

“Whoa is me, I have crested the rise only to slide down the
other side.&nbsp; Hard work and determination
culminated in victory but alas it was short lived.&nbsp; Success is barely meaningful if it is
permanent.&nbsp; Poor, poor dear, I will have
to strive once more at the face of a new challenge or even worse might have to
make another run at this one.&nbsp; How shall
I ever bear it?” I lament, my sponsor smiles.

“Are you learning to be amused at yourself or hoping to
bring back melodrama to the everyman?”&nbsp;
She queries.

“A little of both I think, whining is a consolation to me,”
I reply.

“It’s nice that you’re not doing it at me, but even nicer
that you have let your achievements teach you to laugh at your mishaps,” says
my sponsor with a kiss to my forehead.
