The wrong shape

I normally LOVE puzzle games, but have been working on Level 76 of this for over two days (not constantly, but whenever I have a spare moment!) Whatever I do, I end up with the wrong shape to complete the game. It's extra hard because each shape can be rotated and it gives me too many options!

Do you ever feel the "wrong shape" to complete something you've started - or maybe feel you have no choice but to try and finish? In my Christian life - which started when I was 24 - I have had to learn that, just because there is a need, I don't have to be the one to volunteer - especially if it's something I'm not suited to at all. Sometimes people have said to me about something I have done "I could never do that" and that's only true because it's not something they're called to do, but I am! In life generally, I think that we should not feel guilty about things that we don't feel able to do - some people can, some people can't and no-one should put pressure on anyone else to do the same things as they can just because, to them, they seem easy. They are the "right shape" to finish the task, others may not be the right shape to even start it! We're all made differently, and we all have our own strengths and weaknesses. Learning to accept this can be one of life's hardest lessons I sometimes think. I still want to finish this wretched puzzle level though!
