Let Go

The more successful revenge is achieved by being the best that you can be.

Blackmailing,
spreading rumors,
and gossiping,
only hurt you in return.

But by showing them how much better you are,
you not only make them feel inferior,
but rise to the top as well.

This is why I am the better person.
Not him.

People always say,
"keep you friends close,
and your enemies closer"
but why stay close to the people that make you feel bad?
Stay with the people who make you happy,
successful,
and truly great about yourself.
Not the people who bring you down.

Effort can take you anywhere.

In the Meantime...

I think I'm waiting to write a good post until some stroke of genius strikes me
because I kind of have really bad writer's block.
So I'm gonna post some of my favorite quotes from songs.
Not all of them are really deep, they just sound good in the song.

"I don't think you realize what you mean to me, not the slightest clue. Cause me and you were like a crew, I was like your sidekick" - Eminem (I Need a Doctor)

"Throw dirt on me, and grow a wildflower" - Lil Wayne (No Love)

"You showed me nothing but hate, you ran me into the ground.  But what goes around comes around" - Eminem (No Love)

"I'm not gonna stay and watch you circle the drain" - Katy Perry (Circle the Drain)

"In another life, I would be your girl. We keep all our promises, be us against the world" - Katy Perry (The One That Got Away)

"Everybody dies but not everybody lives" - Drake (Moment 4 Life)

"You lil brag-a-lot I'll beat you with a pad-a-lock" - Nicki Minaj (Roman's Revenge)

"Grab somebody sexy, tell 'em hey" - Ne-Yo (Give Me Everything)

"Now I don't really care what you call me, just as long as you don't call me cold" - Eminem (That's All She Wrote)

So I actually have a lot more, so I might post a Part II sometime.

Ecstasy

There's a point you hit,
eventually,
that revolves in complete peace,
every aspect of a content mind,
perpetually at ease.

This is where I reside today.
I feel every change in the weather
as if these nuances are differences in my emotions.

I feel every touch as if it is lightning,
shocking my body out of reality,
into a sort of dream state
where everything is at peace.

I'll Be
