I come, I conquer


"In life we do things; some we wish we had never done, some we wish we could replay a million times in our heads. But they all make us who we are and in the end, they shape every detail about us. If we were to reverse any of them, we wouldn't be the person we are. So just live, make mistakes and have wonderful memories. But never, ever second guess who you are, where you have been and - most importantly - where it is that you're going."

This quote was a good reminder to me, especially since I've been going through some hard times lately. You may have noticed that I haven't been posting as much but I'm back at it now. Not to sound cliché but what doesn't kill you really does make you stronger. And it sometimes helps you step back and reassess your life. Not everyday is going to be rainbows and butterflies but the strength we find within ourselves to carry on and pull through is what makes us who we are. When life knocks you down and sets you back, you have two choices - let it keep you down or get up and conquer.
