The greatest sense of victory is not felt by massive accumulations of wealth, incredible physical achievements, by creating awe-inspiring artistic works of beauty, nor by declaring mastery and subjugation over ones emotions.

It is by rising each day, and committing to positivity, by being conscientious and aware of ones surroundings, by insisting upon self-discipline, commanding oneself to treat others in the most considerate way possible, all while totally believing in the power of hope, and love.

And, this victory is about looking inside oneself, and acknowledging all of the wonderful elements that make you shine, every day, burning with a mad, glowing, bright light called hope.

Because we are naught satisfied by the lesser victories of external conquest, but the monumental achievements accomplished within ourselves by waging our incremental, internal, emotional war.

And as long as we push forward the lines, we are complete.

Humbly yours.
