About Me
HATE ME OR LOVE ME, YOU'RE GOING TO REMEMBER ME! I am strong because I believe in myself. I know who I am and what I can do. It doesn't matter what I look like, where I live, or who my friends are. What matters is the confidence that I carry within. Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are. Character is doing the right thing when nobody's looking. There are too many people who think that the only thing that's right is to get by, and the only thing that's wrong is to get caught. You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you can not fool all the people all of the time. Don't measure yourself by what you have accomplished, but by what you should have accomplished with your ability. The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends. People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anyone! Never take someone for granted, hold every person close to your heart, because you might wake up one day, and realize that you have lost a diamond, while you were too busy collecting stones! We call a person who has lost his father, an orphan, a man who has lost his wife, a widower. But that man who has known the immense pain of losing a friend, by what name do we call him? He who loses money, loses much; He who loses a friend, loses much more, He who loses faith, loses all. Contrary to what the cynics say, distance is not for the fearful, it is for the bold. It's for those who are willing to spend a lot of time alone in exchange for a little time with the one they love. It's for those knowing a good thing when they see it, even if they don't see it nearly enough! Friendship often ends in love, but love in friendship - Never! Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that...you can't shake hands with a clenched fist! Speak when you are angry and you will make the best speech you will ever regret.Life is but a brief moment. People desire so many things and waste their days in vain. Some yearn for gold, others for power, yet others for glory and a higher status. But when death's moment nears and they look back at their lives they've lived, they realise they've been happy only during those moments when they've loved. You've got to take the good with the bad, smile with the sad, love what you've got, and remember what you had. Always forgive, but never forget. Learn from mistakes, but never regret. It is easier to find men who will volunteer to die, than to find those who are willing to endure pain with patience - If a man hasn't discovered something that he will die for, he isn't fit to live.The longer I live the more I believe you do have to give if you wanna recieve. There's a time to listen, a time to talk and you might have to crawl even after you walk! I had sure things blow up in my face, seen the longshot win the race, been knocked down by the slamming door, picked myself up and came back for more! It's not how many times you get knocked down, but its how many times you get back up. Never give in, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense. Never yield to force, never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy. Forgive your enemies, but never, never forget their names. You show me a good loser, you show me nothing but a loser! A man isn't finnished when he is beaten, he is finnished when he quits!The only man who never makes a mistake is the man who never does anything! In any moment of decision the best thing you can do is the right thing, the worst thing you can do is nothing! Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly. Regrets are inevitable, but grudges are a choice! Nothing in life is to be feared, It is to be understood. All men are timid on entering any fight. Whether it is the first or the last fight, all of us are timid. Cowards are those who let their timidity get the better of their manhood. You gain strength and confidence by every experience where you really stop to look fear in the face. You must do the things you cannot do! Impossible is not a fact, its merley an opinion.God will not look you over for medals, degrees, or diplomas, but for scars. Without faith, nothing is possible. With it, nothing is impossible. When life gives you a hundred reasons to cry, show life that you have a thousand reasons to smile. You must experience and accept the extremes. Because if the contrast is lost, you lose appreciation; and when you lose appreciation, you lose the value of everything.I've learned that things change, people change, and it doesn't mean you forget the past or try to cover it up. It simply means that you move on and treasure the memories. Letting go doesn't mean giving up... it means accepting that some things weren't meant to be. The windows of my soul are made of one-way glass, so don't bother looking into my eyes...if there's something you want to know just ask! I fear no one, but respect everyone!
