Most of the time, to me, things are easier said than done. Especially for person like me. I’ve always been the all or nothing type. It’s just who I am… love me or hate me. And it ain’t always a good thing. My heart is on my sleeve. With that sort of approach to life comes much heartache, hardship and disappointment. I also feel that it is the only way to be if you are to truly get what you want out of life.

Quite obviously, it is a double edged sword. It makes victory all the sweeter and loss totally devastating. It’s hot or cold, black or white. I’ve got no time or interest in lukewarm or gray. I’m “all in” from the flop. Either you are with me or against me. If I’m in your corner, I’ve got your back to the end. This mindset can make you the best friend, the best spouse, and the best teammate in the world. It can also set you up to be taken advantage of or taken for granted. You take for granted the axle that holds the wheels on your car, until that fucker snaps and you end up in a ditch on the side of the highway. My advice is live hard and die hard and love hard in between. Cuz tomorrow ain’t promised and today is slipping away...
