This time it will be different

Life; as soon as you decide you're going to break out of mediocrity and rise to another level, it attacks you with a vengeance. I've come to find out that's just the nature of this fallen world we live in. Flowers need to fight weeds in order to blossom. They grow side by side until one tries to choke the very life out of the other.

I have always let the fight push me back down into average. Average. That's a curse word to me now. Anyway, I have always allowed myself to be lulled back into complacency. I've been hiding from my life, escaping in recreation to avoid the conflict of excellence. Not anymore. This time I'm going to fight back.

I'm throwing all of my self-medicating solutions out the window. Boredom will not overtake me. Laziness will not be found in me. I will no longer frolick in the playground of idleness. Life has found its formidable opponent. It will no longer push me down, set me back, cause me to run with my tale between my legs. Never again. Fight me. I may triumph as a big bleeding mess, but I will triumph nonetheless.
