A couple days ago I suffered a major harddrive failer and lost about 2 weeks of work thats unrecoverable.  Work that in my opinion I had pourd my heart into for a change.  Concepts that fufilled me- moved me and made me happy.  I had gone for so long working the grind stone that I truly had lost my joy when it came to my work.  Then I finally got thrown some work that really thrilled me. --But-- Life can be funny, right when you can't take a setback the most- right when times are tough and everything is on the line, Life will come along and ask you "What type of material are you made of?"

When the going gets tough do you surrender?  Give in and shy away from the hard work or do you dig in all the more.  Even though I suffered this major setback I am at a stage where its all or nothing.  Soon I will have my chance to shine a little bit.  No one will take that away from me.  So if life thinks it can push me- Well life I'll push you right back.  If I have to rebuild damn if I wont rebuild better.  Stronger.  I am more motivated then ever,  while the other guys sleeping I'll be painting, while the other guys making friends I'll be painting, while the other guys having a life I'll be painting.  This year is the year I make my way.  So if your the other guy watch out cause I'm gonna come out of no where I'll take what I worked for and they'll be nothing you can do about it.
