Soliloquy.

[jubjub]

The following is a speech I gave to myself today. Think of it as Kevin from the Wonder Years talking to himself. In fact, it was his voice that I heard, not mine. Anyways, I don't mean to preach...I just need to get it out of my system:

I wake up every morning thinking about how life really kicked my ass the day before.
I wonder about what makes a person strong.

Strength to me is doing what you can.
It is gathering all your energy to take that extra step...
no matter how small it may be.

Strength is proving your enemies wrong...
and reminding your friends that their faith is in good hands.
Go forward, even when you know you cant...
if not for yourself then for the ones you love.
Forget what everyone else would do, and do what you have to do.

My strength is my ambition.
That is to say, I dream of flying ever so closely to the sun...
knowing full on, that my wings are made of wax.
My wings might fail me, and I might come crashing down...
but while my neck may break my spirit will not.

I wake up everymorning and realize.
That it's easy to be weak...
but strength is a constant struggle.
I realize that getting up today will make me stronger than I was yesterday.

Fight the good fight, no matter how bleak the situation is.
