Favorite Quote:
To be successful you have to be selfish, or else you never achieve. And once you get to your highest level, then you have to be unselfish. Stay reachable. Stay in touch. Don&#039;t isolate.<br /> -Michael Jordan

The lonely nights and brighter days
Kill the evenings that my eyes turn from the world
From the pain and guilt of my soul
and the troubles of my heart i have to face
A day without you, is a day without light
Blinded from what i see before me
And oblivious to the things that make my future
Pain, Passion, Pleasure
