However, In the midst of these things, we can still tell ourselves some short love stories and then receive the motivation to climb out on the sand that life throws at us all.  

Short love stories are not just the lullabies by mothers or the words that come from the proposal of a man who is in love with a pretty damsel or a just-married couple at the wake of the honey moon. As matter of fact, they seem to mean more to every individual as all travel in the path of life. You can choose to be discouraged or assume the fight of a champion by telling yourself a short love story.  This is a requirement for outstanding success in the planet on which we have found ourselves.

Do you love yourself? That is a simple but vital question.  The question is simply important because it is only when you love yourself that you can have a healthy self esteem and then believe in yourself. Without these, short love stories will be locked up and will be unable to flow from the conduit of your mind in order to sprinkle some soothing drops of water on your tongue as you venture the scorching sun. Without them, life cannot but be boring and a life void of their taste cannot but be bitter. Yes! The short love stories.

Every great man or woman that surmounted the odds has surely told himself or herself short love stories. They may not regard it as a short love story. However, they told it to themselves during those times of adversity and those words and thoughts  put them above the circumstances. Sir Edmund Hillary must have rolled those thoughts in his heart as went on to surmount Everest, Abraham Lincoln must have said those love stories to himself during those years of failure, and of course, Thomas Edison as he navigated that rugged path to give the world the filament bulb.
