Just a short little thing. Enjoy
_______________

“Nanakorobi Yaoki”
“So what, if this world is rough? It’s a fact of life – life’s not fair. But, no matter what odds you’ve been dealt, it’s up to you what you do with them. I won’t say that life is entirely in your control. No, I’d be lying.

“Sometimes, crap happens. Stand up, and wipe yourself off. Your environment doesn’t decide when you give up. You do.

“You have the power to dredge through the darkness, to lift yourself from the abyss, and march with head held high towards the light. Things aren’t going to magically become better, no; you have to make them that way.

“Your spirit is in control. You’re only defeated when you give up. So, lift your face up out of the dirt. When life kicks you to the ground, get up swinging your fists. Show them that you’re not done, that you’ll work for what you want, what you believe in. When life gets rough…

“Stumble seven times. Stand up eight.”

Indeed it is short xd

"Stumble 7 times....stand up 8" Best part as it shows that no matter how life gets you down you have to get back up. Nicely done.

xd Hey, I was using short sayings as prompts for writing exercises to get me back into the swing. I've got a few more, but I don't like the others as much as this one.

Indeed, I see that. ^_^ And I agree - there's something powerful about that phrase to me. I agree with it whole-heartedly. Its' not over until you give up.

Kind of those "It's not a mistake until you refuse to correct it" type things.

And I've actually written twelve pages of stuff in the last two weeks. I feel...amazing.

Writing is a wonderful way of releasing stress. ^_^
