You can't solve a problem with the mindset that created the problem.

-

You love the way, I look at you,
While taking pleasure in the awful things you put me through.
You take away, If I give in, my life, my pride is broken!

-

You will not win 'cause damn, I will not lose!🔥

-

And I hope my spirit haunts the greatest competition when I'm gone,
My picture jumps off a poster and just floats through the halls,
And goes through the walls like the ghost of Lou Rawls!

One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today..

-

We are all in the same game, just different levels, dealing with the same hell, just different devils.
Sometimes, Satan is at bat and things go upside-down,
You get your face wet with the hardest tears of the clown,
And it's though you feel, you've died,
Cause' you've been killed inside,
But yet you are still alive,
Which means you will survive.

God gave you shoes to walk the miles of your life, that fit you, so just put em' on and fight, be yourself man.
Never let anyone tell you that you ain't beautiful!

-

Embrace the limits and then embarace them.
Know the rules well, so you can break them effectively.

I bargained with Life for a penny,
And life would pay no more,
However I begged at evening
When I counted my scanty store.

For Life is just an employer,
He gives you what you ask,
But once you have set the wages,
Why? You must bear the task.

I worked for a menial's hire,
Only to learn, dismayed,
That any wage I had asked of Life,
Life would have willingly paid.
