The strength of a man isn't in the deep tone of his voice,
it's in the gentle words he whispers.
The strength of a man isn't how many friends he has,
it's how good of a friendship he has with his children.
The strength of a man isn't how respected he is in the streets,
it's how respected he is at home.
The strength of a man isn't how hard he hits,
it's how tender he touches.
The strength of a man isn't the weight he can lift,
it's the burdens he can carry.

Things are finally starting to look up.
I knew something great was gonna happen, I knew it. And I couldn't have been more right. I'm at SUCH a good place in my life right now, can't nobody bring me down. Things were rough for a minute, but I have a feeling it's all uphill from here...... I'm keeping my head up and I'm leaving behind all of those that once left me.
With that being said, I got a new job. A better one, much much better. But I'm not telling anybody anything about it because niggas like to hate on your shine. I don't need anybody putting an evil eye over what I got. My relationship is amazing, it's better than anything I could have ever asked for - I thank God every day for sending such a perfect person my way. Same as with my job, I'm not telling anybody anything about me and minez because not only is it not anybodys business, but I don't need these thirsty ass hoes hating on what I got and they don't. My relationship with my mom is great, my car is great, bills are being paid on time, the weather's nice.... Everything is perfect right now.

Newest addition to my family!
Okay so... Maybe not so new, lol. I bought him in March. I just don't think I posted a picture yet. It's not the Acura TL I've always wanted..... But I love it anyways. It's a 2008 Civic, if you can't tell. It's a standard, and it's equipped with a Honda navigation system. Love it! You see how dark my tints were? I miss that. MA laws suck, so I had to remove them in order for my car to pass inspection. So yeah. His name is Ghost :)

"This too shall pass"
Here's my (almost) latest tattoo. I got another one after this, but this one is still fairly new. I got in on April 7th, 2010. I love it so much! Basically, I got it to remind me that "this too shall pass." Every rough time I go through, WILL eventually pass. So when I look in the mirror in the morning, and everytime I look over my shoulder - I see these words of inspiration, and it just reminds me too keep my head up. Because even if it seems far away, recovery is ALWAYS an option. In the opposite sense though, I also got it to remind me to never take anything for granted - and to always look at everything as if I'm seeing it for the first or last time. Because like all BAD things, all GOOD things shall too pass someday.
