All you built now rubble? Perfect. Rebuild your best yet.

Can you relate?

You started strong.

Learned who you are. What you're made of. What you stand for.

You reached new horizons. Built the future with the best.

But the rug got pulled. And the leap became the great fall.

It happens.

My friend: Do not lower your standards. Raise them.

You are not diminished by the rejection. You are emboldened.

Not every culture is ready for what you bring. You now know that.

Do not give up. Your work is not done.

See the light. Refocus. Recalibrate. Lean on another. But move.

Now, rebuild. Foundation to studs. Wiring to walls. Whatever it takes.

Those who rise are often the ones that do something truly great.

This is you.

Rise.
