blood and sweat no more tears.....

Pleasure and pain. Theyre not opposites. Theyre neighbors separated by a thin line, by a split second.

One minute youre feeling like everything is going your way like youre ready to climb the highest mountain headed for the top of the world.

But in the game of life you never know.

You train for years to get a piece of personal glory or a chance to stand toe to toe with your peers and say, Here I am. Take your best shot. Then the contest begins and BANG! youre down for the count.

Its not your day. You tried your best. But was it really your best?

So do you go home with a broken heart? Or do you get up smarter, wiser and better prepared then ever before?

Its a new day a new season a new you!

You hope it wont be the same story, or will pleasure turn into pain again? Are you ready to take lifes best punch and stay on your feet?

I cant answer that. Only you can.

Are you hoping for the best? Are you prepared for the challenge?

(Sylvester Stallone)
