The truth is, life is rarely exactly the way we want it to be, and other people often don’t act as we would like them to. Moment to moment, there are aspects of life that we like and others that we don’t. There are always going to be people who disagree with you, people who do things differently, and things that don’t work out. If you fight against the principle of life, you’ll spend most of your life fighting battles.

Dear followers,
I’m launching a new pet project of mine, a new running blog: Project Marathon. While it could have been a continuation of this blog, I prefer to separate these themes. I will still continue to update this blog as well. Happy Reading!

Your true character is revealed by the clarity of your convictions, the choices you make, and the promises you keep. Hold strong to your principles and refuse to follow the currents of convenience. What you say and do defines who you are, and who you are… you are forever.

I’ve learned that everyone wants to live on top of the mountain, but all the happiness and growth occurs while you’re climbing it.

I hear the criticism loud and clear, that is how I know that the time is near, so we become alive in a time of fear, and I ain’t got no motherfucking time to spare, cry my eyes out for days upon days, such a heavy burden placed upon me, but when you go hard your nay’s become yay’s, Yankee Stadium with Jay’s and Kanye’s.
