Ahh!  “getting up” that word that only gets assigned true meaning when someone’s going through difficulties in life. Now, let’s be completely honest; how many of you have seen, read or heard a loud, rotund “all you have to do is get up!”  Do you feel like that motivates you to do it, or is it more like a nudge in the opposite direction of where you’re trying to go?
I recalled something I was beginning to write back in 2018 in which I said something about just recovering from a headshot wound isn’t really the hard part; actually trying to carry a “normal” life afterwards is.
