Favorite Quote:
Love looks not with the eyes but with the mind and therefore is wing'd cupid painted blind. -William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night's Dream


When life gets you down,
It’s your job to pick it up again.
When you fall and scrape your knee,
It’s your job to heal.

The people who succeed are the ones who forget their falls and look towards the future.
The ones who fail are the ones who cover up their falls with lies.
Until they are covered in cuts and bruises that soon become scars.
A dark reminder of their past failures.
Hidden too deep in their own despair to discover life’s true meaning.
While the successes live a true life,
The failures dig a grave for themselves before realizing what they will miss until it’s already missed.

Once in a long while a failure discovers true life and instead of scars being a haunting reminder of their bad past
It’s a success story in the making.

Be a success.
Don’t dwell in the past.
Look toward the future.

Sitting on the ground and saying, "I can fly." isn't going to get you anywhere. You have to take the leap. If you fall, you learn, but if you fly, you soar. That's all I want you to know.
