Each day has enough trouble of its own&quot; Matthew 6:34<br /> <br /> ...&quot;I have no time for fear, or people in my ear. Head down and running so fast, try not to dwell on the past. I&#039;m fighting through this pain, and things I cannot change.

It&#039;s not about the journey. It&#039;s about the transformation you make in yourself as you go along that journey.&quot;<br /> - Unknown
