IN LIFE, THE GREATEST CHALLENGES THAT WE HAVE COME FROM WITHIN US. YOU SEE, WE CREATE EXPERIENCES THAT TEACH US INVALUABLE LESSONS EVERY DAY. EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THESE LESSONS HELP SHAPE OUR FUTURE AND THE PERSON WE ARE ORDAINED TO BECOME. AS MUCH AS WE CAN DETERMINE OUR OWN HAPPINESS, WE CAN ALSO, DO THE SAME WITH OUR FAILURES AS WELL. WE CAN BE OUR BIGGEST PROMOTERS, OR WE CAN BE OUR GREATEST ENEMY. IN LIFE, 

IT'S NOT ABOUT WHO WE ARE THAT HOLDS US BACK; IT'S WHO WE THINK WE’RE NOT. AS MUCH AS OTHERS TRY TO PUSH THEIR VALUES AND IDEALS ONTO US, ULTIMATELY, IT’S UP TO US TO DECIDE HOW TO LIVE OUR LIVES. YOU MAY NOT MAKE EVERYONE HAPPY WITH YOUR DECISIONS, BUT AT LEAST YOU ARE BEING TRUE TO YOURSELF. WE MUST STOP LIMITING OUR GREATNESS, OUR POTENTIAL, OUR JOURNEY AND OUR DESTINY, JUST TO PLEASE OTHERS. 

WE MUST DO WHAT WE WERE CREATED TO DO. OTHERWISE, WE BECOME ENSLAVED TO THE CHAINS AND SHACKLES OF STRUGGLES THAT WE PLACE ON OUR OWN WRIST. FOR, IN THE END, THERE IS A GREAT PRICE THAT WE PERSONALLY PAY, WHEN WE ARE LIVING LIFE FOR OTHERS. LOOK, IF YOU WANT TO BE HAPPY, YOU MUST FIRST BE FREE. BREAK YOUR OWN CHAINS AND BE YE FREE. – IT’S JUST A THOUGHT.
