Today I am tired and defeated and without an ounce of fight left.

Write that down, or say it out loud. Go ahead, I’ll wait…..

Now, tell yourself to fuck off. Sure, you’re tired-we all are but that’s no excuse to decide that you’re just done and things are never going to get better. Life SUCKS sometimes-it does and the last thing that we want to hear are things like; “It is what it is.” -“This all happens for a reason.”- “Hang in there.”

Shut your face when you’re talking to me! -THAT’S what I want to read on the tank top of the next person that walks past me with a purple Starbucks and new Ray Bans. SHUT-YOUR-FACE!

We grow tired because of the fighting we have done. Get up and be proud. You’re not tired-you’re just feeling your body recharge. We feel defeated so that we can dig deeper and find more strength than we thought we had.Get up and dig deep. You haven’t been defeated-you’re just learning that there is so much more of yourself that you haven’t tapped into. We hit bottom so that we are able to regain our sight and look up at the endless sky of opportunity. Get up-and fight. Fight for everyone that you love, fight for everything that you have ever wanted. Fight so that others who fall into the place that you are-remember you, and get up again.

RISE DAMNIT~ You are not done. It’s just time for you to realize that the world… hasn’t even seen you yet.
