Feeling Inspired.

 Really inspired by this quote:
"You cannot dream yourself into a character: you must hammer and forge yourself into one."
Henry D. Thoreau

Working for your dreams and goals isn't easy. Ever. If only success could fall into your lap. Except that I think I wouldn't appreciate it for what it's really worth if I had that type of luck.
I'm thankful for the success I've had in my young years, but I'm more thankful for what it's taken to get to this point in my life. Especially when I realize what little amount of success I've experienced compared to this giant world. One of the most inspiring things, at least to me, is knowing I'll never stop hammering. Never stop forging. Always changing, growing, cultivating. failing over and over, but never giving up the fight. Reminding myself to not say, "when this happens, when that happens," but making it happen.

On a completely different note (insert complaining here--&gt), the cold has officially set in. It's 30° outside, and I'm not happy about it. Nope, not one bit. Winter, you really stink.
