Wake up Call.

It amazes me how much strength someone can give me without him even knowing that he's my ultimate source of it. Even if he did know, he probably wouldn't accept any credit because he's just that type of person. Through rough spots, rough stops, and all the heavy heartache, one person has been able to see me through it all and never spit judgment. Only one person has been able to live tough love with me completely. This same person, so far, is the only person who can really put me in my place.

So, wake up call. Nothing is certain. Tomorrow is not promised. The mistakes we make daily cannot hold us back from living because we don't know how much time left we have to live. Scratch that. The mistakes we make can hold us back if we allow it to. But since we don't know what tomorrow will bring, if tomorrow will even come, then it gives us all the more reason not to allow such things to take control of our lives. Work harder, laugh longer, and love better because at the end of the day you have more than you think. And at the end of the day, you are far more blessed than you realized. & Clearly I have forgotten that.


All this living has got me loving to the point where I'm too numb to feel any pain, too high off life to be brought down, and too smart to not see things for what they are.

I'm not entirely naive. I know things don't last forever, but that's why we're going til we can't go any more; fighting til there's nothing left to fight for. Hell yes, everything happens for a reason. I've learned to find those reasons, test my waters, and always look forward because the past can get too distracting.

There will always be too much to look at causing your view point to be far too fogged to understand your present and future. The hectic scene can cause you to anticipate far too much from the little you've allowed yourself to live which gives you all the more reason to just live because time really does fly. All things really are possible, so by all means: live, love, and laugh because things are a lot better than you realize. If you do realize how great things are, then raise the stakes. Intensify it. Life is too short. You'll never have "just what you asked for" or "what you've always wanted" -- YOU'LL GET WHAT YOU WORK FOR. So, do work.
