ok, now then...let's get down

so i was talking with my friend the other day and we got to talking about life. We talked about how people complain about life, about how life throws them shiety cards etc. etc. I've come to see life just like that, it's like playing a hand at poker. And just like poker, winning the game is all about how you play. Someone with the worst cards can still win the game. I'll give you that sometimes people either just have it lucky or in fact do have some shiety cards, but it's more than just what you're dealt. So much more. By the same token, someone can get all the right cards and play them wrong and still lose. How you play the game is what's important. In most cases, you can cry all you want about the life you have and i'm willing to bet that a good percentage of what's going on has everything to do with the decisions that you're making. Don't go crying about the stuff you're in when you're doing nothing to get away from it.

I've heard a lot of times that people treat life like it's something that acts on them, like it's some kind of outside force that has its way with their lives. Life is something that we live, not something that happens to us. I know you've heard it a lot of times, but life is what we make it. If you're not making your life into somethin, don't complain about the condition it's in cause that's not just gonna happen. Life's not just gonna turn around for you, you gotta turn it around. Play with the cards your dealt, don't just get them and then cry about em as if the game is already over. You've got to play and play smart, because like poker, you can have absolutely nothing in your hand but come out wit everything. You can lose it all just as easily too, so play smart.

If you don't like what's going on around you, change what's around you. Surround yourself with different things, different people, things that support you, build you up, and make you a better being.

yeah yeah, so i'm on a self improvement trip. what can i say, that's where my life is going right now and i love it. i don't know if i've ever felt so good about what i'm doing with myself than i do right now. there's gonna be more, i promise, especially with my last semester on the horizon wooohooo!!
