“Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place, and I don’t care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard you hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward; how much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now, if you know what you’re worth, then go out and get what you’re worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain’t you. You’re better than that!”
― Sylvester Stallone

“Nothing protects the heart like patience.
Don’t get your hopes up too fast.
Don’t let your fears speak too loud.
Don’t give your doubts too much time.
Not everybody is built to handle the rough times.
Can’t be surprised when you fall off with certain people.
Few people understand what it means to really be there for somebody.
And that’s the roughest part about being on a journey,
You realize the main ones that said they’ll ride,
are the first to fall off.
People make promises when the sun is shining
and make excuses when the storm comes.
That’s why I’m always thankful for the rain…
it washes away the unnecessary.
The reality is, you could be amazing, genuine, and sincere
but still be overlooked. Because honestly, people don’t want something real anymore,
they just want reasons to complain and excuses to avoid. Having a good thing is so hard because meeting a strong person is so rare.
So I’ve learned to respect when people run from me,
I realize my kind of love ain’t for everybody.
I’m at peace with that.”
