“Make a pact with yourself today to not be defined by your past. Sometimes the greatest thing to come out of all your hard work isn't what you get for it, but what you become for it. Shake things up today! Be You...Be Free...Share.”

“If you want me again look for me under your bootsoles.

Missing me one place search another,
I stop some where waiting for you”
