Favorite Quote:
I have discovered in life that there are ways of getting almost anywhere you want to go, if you really want to go. -Langston Hughes


You cannot see it, or feel it, hear it or sense it
Veiled by smiles and courage,
I stand.
And when the time comes, I shall raise my valiant head.
I am a fighter.
Working these halls and streets I uphold peace, happiness and love.
Battle scars are drawn on my heart
and up my arm
showing I've stood against the pain, sorrow, and heartbreak,
and somehow, through hope, faith, and perseverance,
I emerge
everyday,
victorious.
