“Why do we fall? It’s so that we can learn to get back up.”
I was rewatching the Christopher Nolan Batman series, a pick-me-up because a few things went haywire in different circles of my life just and it all got too much.
I took a much needed break from everything to ensure that I could get myself back on track and focused on the things that were most important to me.
