Should I keep licking my wounds?

I am devastated over my latest rejection letter. I thought for sure I was going to be published with that story, but it wasn’t a story; it was a personal essay, a memoir.

The essay featured an infamous evil person who hurt me and actually made the news. You can Google his name, and it will pop up.

The hurt of rejection stings almost as much as the pain caused by this criminal person who harmed me.

Again, I held high hopes for this essay to be published, and I am crushed over this rejection.

Should I lick my wounds, get up and keep going, or give up?

To be honest, I’m tired and all worn out.
