Something inspirational:

"The road to success is not straight. There is a curb called Failure, a loop called Confusion; speed bumps called Friends; red lights called Enemies, caution lights called Family. You will have flats called jobs. But if you have a spare called Determination; an engine called Perseverance; insurance called Faith, and a driver called God, you will make it to a place called Success!"

  1. The road to success does seem to have a lot of difficulties, which I seem to know a lot about. I've never really had it in my life, so it's something of a feeling that would be new to me.

    I'm hoping and praying that if I continue to work on improving myself that things will be very different in the future.

    1. Thanks Randy. I think you've hit the nail on the head. That working on improving yourself will change how you view and deal with your life and that should bring about success.

  2. I agree life's a bumpy journey, but you can smooth the way with faith in yourself and determination.

    I believe we are our own driver.
