Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength.

Philosophical Tidbits of Wisdom

As a person steps onto the stage, facing those inner daemons that have called to them for countless hours, days, and weeks to just let it be, a moment of silence occurs as reflection takes one back to the blood, sweat, tears, or even mental anguish that lead them to that moment. At that moment, whether it is a body-building competition, an acting audition, a speech, attaining a degree, or facing an untold fear, life clearly states in a feeling, not a thought or action, that it was never about the destination. No, it was always about the journey, the hardships, the hard work, and the determination needed to grasp that single moment.

What can you do with just one of your moments?

With blessings, my friends. May inner strength find you as you advance confidently in the direction of your dreams.
