Long live the rose that grew from concrete when no one else even cared.

Hardships exist to make me stronger, helping me grow and improve, not to leave me hopeless or discouraged.

If everything was perfect, you would never learn and you would never grow.

Should I just stop trying and give up? But then, that's exactly what they're waiting for me to do.

I set goals, take control, drink out my own bottle. I make mistakes but learn from every one. And when it's said and done, I bet this brother be a better one. If I upset you don't stress; never forget, that God isn't finished with me yet.

Challenges are gifts that force us to search for a new center of gravity. Don't fight them. Just find a new way to stand.
