"The greatest oak was once a little nut, who held its ground."-Unknown.
In life, the men who succeed are those who hold their grounds desite the various challenges that presents itself.
You must be willing to keep singing the song of "freedom" even as you swing towards a win.
The oak tree is a very big tree but it isn't always that big because it started out as being a nut that may or may not even survive the night.
The worth of a man is not measured by his size, but by the deeds he applies into his life and that which affects his world.
Learn to never despise yourself at your "nut stage", even the oak tree went through its "nut stage" to get to become the biggest tree you have ever had to see.
Be more about the future than what presents itself. Your past and present are a pathway to your future and you must learn to hold that which is important as you make your journey eyes through life.
