Surrender is a choice, it is never a calling.

Apathy is giving up when we need to get up.

I might define a ‘journey’ as something that life itself calls me to. And I might then define a ‘trip’ as something I create to avoid a journey by mimicking a journey. And while fear is most certainly part and parcel of both, the latter is emboldened by fear while the former surrenders to it.

Mediocrity is a path cleared by fear, leveled by apathy and paved by comfort.

To fall is not to fail. To fail is to never fall because I never got up in the first place.

If the amount of times we get up is just one less than the amount of times that we've been knocked down, then we're spending our lives lying down.
