Where it's going
I guess I been feeling a lack of inspiration lately. I feel like I haven't done anything original in a long time. It's like all my drive is gone. Where is all the will to do something big? To make it on my own?
I saw this quote on a friend's twitter that mentions "It's not where you take things from - it's where you take them to." - Jean-Luc Godard
All this time I been looking to myself to find some sort of inspiration to do something new, but I guess I forgot it doesn't matter where the inspiration comes from, it's what you do with it. Find a new idea or build on a old just take it somewhere. It doesn't matter who or what thought of it, it matters where you take it to.

Lost
Everyone say they know there are more have nots than haves, yet everyone forgets that includes themselves. A lot of people seem to think that their included in the have nots, but if you got internet and you reading this, you are not included in that have not group.
For everything you don't have, there's more people with even less. You think you have it bad with one parent? Think of the kid with no parents? What's with the mentality that life gives you the short end of the stick?
Don't give me wrong, I'll give much sympathy to those people out there in hard times, but do you want to be that guy that everyone says they feel sorry for or do you want to be that guy that everyone says wow look how that guy was able to do so much with so little in life?
I've seen and heard some crazy things. I know no matter what happens, life can be even crazier. Are you the one armed man cursing God for your missing arm or are you the man with no arms and legs thanking God you're alive? Life is all about perspective. If you get lost in the suffering, you'll never see the happiness before you.

Do you want to go through life with sympathy or do you want to go through life with respect? Sympathy, people will give you. Respect, you got to earn it.
