The shadows creep in The light darkens She cries out Searching, Hoping for someone to hear But, no one hears There is only silence There are only shadows Taking over

Life is sometimes a struggle, and sometimes not. You learn to endure the hardships and be happy anyways. Take every ounce of joy as gold, for it only lasts a moment. Focus on the positive. And most importantly, SMILE.

"I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed."
~Michael Jordan
