when walls start closing up on you and you feel like you can not breathe, remember that you have been fighting the battle of life ever since you were born. every second, minute, hour, day, week, month and year, you have survived when others did not. You braved through the storm like the warrior that you are, fought each day like the general you were born to be and emerged victorious every time like the leader you were destined to become.
No one has ever had it easy, every person has their own obstacles to overcome. Their own demons to fight and their own path to walk on. Life was never meant to be easy nor was it meant to be hard. It was always meant to be lived and the best way to live it is by being unapologetically yourself and having faith in yourself. Challenges are never there to stop you but they are there to train you to be a better and stronger version of yourself.
Through mistakes we learn, each failure is a lesson and each lesson determines your next succeess. With every victory, your courage is rebuilt and your strength will be restored so that the next time you go to battle with life, you will be more than prepared. So when you fall, don't just stay down and give up, rather rise, pick up a harmer and tear down the walls that are blocking your path to succeess.
No one was born a failure neither was anyone born a loser, rather, it's the choices that we make as we grow that determines who we will become in the future. So when dust comes to play and all hope seems lost, what choice will you make?
