Things that mean something to me
Honor
Being the best at something To feel alive, and be happy with my life, I must do something worthy of the greatness I am capable of. I must constantly push myself to the brink of self-destruction, until I find I can walk on the emptiness toward the unknown horizon. I must work hard, and long, never stopping till I achieve what I set out to accomplish, and then pushing myself beyond my limits to achieve what I never thought possible. My life IS how I choose to live it. I will not succumb to other's whims, needs, or fears. I will conquer what stands in my way, both external and internal forces. I will break every barrier before me, whether self-imposed or forced down, whether real or imaginary. This is the first and only time necessary to put into words this credo. I have always lived by it, although at times it is watered down by laziness or weakness. My mind, my mental craft and skills, have always been honed. My fortitude and my strength, have sometimes wavered in the ocean of pressure I have put on it. My body has suffered at times due to my laziness. No more. With the articulation of these words into a testimony, I swear I will not waiver from my goals. My mind, my skills, my body; all will go beyond the limits of what is possible as a whole. The only goals that matter are my own, and as such, I swear that they will be fulfilled. Michael Wasielewski Jr. |
