hard times bring out obstacles bring out victories bring out failures bring out character bring out experience. life isn't easy. it's a big, tangled, crazy, wild, overwhelming mess that can get in the way of success of happiness of movement of vision of optimism but trust me when i say light at the end of the tunnel isn't just a cliche statement it is true is relateable is real is tangible is attainable if you just keep walking down the road even if you trip over the cracks and skin your knees and tear up your clothes because when you finally make it out you will feel the strength of a thousand football players in your heart and you will learn things about yourself you didn't even know existed and you will win.
