The Struggle

I believe I will win this fight. 
And all of my dreams will soon be my reality.
And that's my thought process most of the time. 
But I have been struggling to overcome an unyielding foe, that will not let go.
No matter what I have tried. And no matter how far I have gone.
Like any battle you learn from the past to adjust your plan and keep going.
You only really lose when you quit.
But do you lose or just delay the game. 
When you stand on the sidelines and can't make yourself get into the action your not losing but your not winning either.
Enough with the sports references. 
I feel like I have been on hold and I cannot muster the strength to get back in.
Have I lost my drive.. my inspiration to fight?
And if I have, where is it? 
Because I need to finish this journey... NOW! 
And that is my struggle.
I have all I need to launch one more battle in the war.
And I know I will eventually win as long as I don't give up.
But doubt, that evil foe, doubt is my struggle.
I must fight past the doubt and try anyway.
I will stay strong.
I will fight on.
As soon as I get off the sidelines.
As long as I don't give up there is always hope.
And hope beats struggle any day.... EVERYDAY!

  1. What can i say about this text...I think you will win this too. You know.. i "discovered" you in brazilian jornal, that was showing you history, and i tought, OMG, the still alive. No i'm not saying that vitiligo can kill / haha. i'm just saying that, i have suffered by psicologycal disease for about 5 years, yes...bulimia and nowdepression, but i don't think i'm alive right now, i've died 1 year ago. Coz' be alive like you, is different than be survivor like me.
    I just have to congrats you, and support you.
    And here, i give you a phrase that makes me walk till the work everyday:
    ALLWAYS, ALLWAYSE KEEP YOUR FAITH. Because sometimes is hard to see all the good things in our lives, but we gotta be strong, we gotta hold on, and love our selves.
    *and i don't know if this would work but, i think you are beautiful just the way you are.

    Oh... i writed too much ahaha.
    Have a nice day, God Bless.
    Hugs from Brazil.
