All Is Fair...

I tend to hope for the best and expect the worst. I have come up with a theory that this makes it easier to deal with the negative aspects of life. I am finally starting to realize that this is not the case.
After a few stressful weeks I have a reached a fitting deneumont to a certain chapter of my life. What follows is a focus on one thing that I plan to put all my heart and soul into(I know thats a cheesy way to put it, but its true). This thing is obviously running, and I plan to drop the part where I expect the worst. From now I am only looking forward to positive outcomes in the future. From now on I am not going to think to myself that I might be capable of doing something, I am simply going to go out and do it.
Right now I am fired up so I am just going off about everything and nothing at the same time without giving it much thought, but I will sit down and start writing out some goals for the future. And you can damn sure believe that these goals will be so outrageous that I really wont expect anybody except for myself to believe that they are possible.
On another note, I ran 14 miles for the day with the middle 10 being llama loop(mid 55).

I will leave you with a long quote from Rocky:
Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t how hard you hit; it’s about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done. Now, if you know what you’re worth, then go out and get what you’re worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hit, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you are because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain’t you. You’re better than that!
