We have all been in that lonely, dark place where it seems as if no one is on our side. It feels as if we are invisible. It feels as if we cannot find the one thing that will pull us out of this funk. It feels as if the easiest way to make it all stop is by giving up. We have reached our final point...

Standing at the tee box for the hole that gives me the most struggle, the dreaded hole number six. Gazing down the fairway toward the flag, I line up my shot.
