I Know Times Get Hard

Hello world,

To all the men and women,

And all the little boys and little girls,

Tough times come and go,

Never bend or Never fold,

God has a plan for us all.

I know you've probably heard those same words, maybe not those exact words but something similar. I'm here to tell you that those words hold a lot of weight and they truly hold a high abundance in life itself as a whole. Whether it's financial struggles, relationship struggles, social struggles, or any type of scuffle or battle in life always be you. Never strive to be someone else and always remember the same place it rains and pours, the sun also shines. I can testify to having struggles in life whether they were athletically, spiritually, or recently socially. It started as me just being myself, then it graduated to me trying to be someone that I always told myself I would never be, just to be impress a bunch of people who didn't have my best interest at heart. A faker who tried to live a false reality of my real self and real life. Truly, I have no one to blame for my mishaps in life but myself. I'm here to tell you that there will never be a better person, better friend, better boyfriend or girlfriend, better athlete, or better student, etc. than YOU! YOU are awesome, YOU are unique, YOU are Greatness Running In Nonstop Determination (G.R.I.N.D.), YOU ARE YOU! Never think for one second that you are less than or inferior to someone, no matter where you are in life.

Keep On Grinding

Keep On Praying

Never Give Up

Always Strive For Success

Let God Do The Rest

Through the fake lifestyle, I caused a lot of pain. Some to people who I never knew nor really meant to hurt and some to the people that were always in my corner. With that being said, always approach the world with genuine love. It's easier said than done and to this day I'm still working towards loving other people.

I once had a friend. He was an aspiring football star on the rise. He was capable of playing at the next level and the next. He also lived a life of crime and ended up in jail. Though he wasn't necessarily living the best life, being around him taught me simple things such always putting faith in yourself and it's not wrong to ask for help but it feels better when you go get what you want by yourself with no help. Sad to say, we don't hang out as much but I know he doing his thing and getting his so I can't hate. Though we don't speak, it's all love and I wish him the best in life.
