What can one do when the road gets tough?

What is a person to do? When you are caught in a rut with no where to go? Many people cannot seem to get over the hurdle that is holding them back. They feel that something will come along and help them magically get out with no pain or suffering.
 I learned at a young age that if you are stuck in a rut the best choice is to learn as you climb. Don't give up on what seems impossible. I am reminded of this I recent days as I have faced some struggles in my personal life. While my work life has remained steady and strong (thanks to the help of my father). My personal life has been more of a train wreck. First I had to cut back on some volunteer work I did (hardest decision I have had to make in 28 years), Then I had to deal with the loss of a few friends. All of this was due to my health. Being able to work from home (bed) on a computer and still work was my only sanity during this last week. I have prayed for an easy way out of this rut but so far I am taking the long climb up.
It is fair to say that logging in and seeing all of my Active Rain family has given me the motivation to keep on climbing. As of today I am doing much better and might even spend some time on me. Praise the Lord for unanswered prayers otherwise I might have missed some great posts by some wonderful people!
