WHEN LIFE BREAKS YOU

i don't care how good you aren't telling  how talented you are  i don't care how much you work on  yourself there are some times when  things aren't going to go right  there are times when anything that can  happen will happen life happens  the unexpected the uncalled for  the unintentional we've been damaged  emotionally damaged spiritually  it may be your business it may be your  heart  that is broken today it may be the  number  in your bank account that is screaming  you are  broke you can break physically you can  break mentally  you can break your heart you can break  your spirit  and all of those are gonna leave a mark  but the mark that they leave can be the  mark of  victory or it can be the mark of defeat  it is staying with the breaking that  produces the blessing  that is not what you go through that  determines where you end up it's who you listen to because i think  right now  you are walking through a valley between  two voices one is wisdom one is worry  one is gratitude one is grumbling one is  blame  one is faith because  every time you break it in every way  that you break  wow it's a chance for you to give up and  for you to fall  apart but there's also  opportunity to get  stronger and get smarter and get faster  and get tougher and get more stable and  get more  resilient and get better  what i need you to do is i need you to  find a reason to keep going and if you  can find a reason to keep going i know  you're strong enough to do it because  you're human  and every human has what it takes to get  past whatever they're going through  if they decide to push through  it push through it tragedy and trials  come to everybody  only the strong survive  the fight isn't over  the fight is just beginning you have  the opportunity to show the world  what you are really made of  i need you to look at that sickness  that's going on in your life right now  whatever it is  i want you to say i can't beat it i can  beat it i will beat it  i must i got a family to live for i  ain't through yet my life ain't over yet  there's some things in life you don't  need no degree for you don't need no  money for it  you don't need no support for it there's  something like you just gonna get  through when you tell yourself i'm gonna  get through this  regard to what happens to your life  regardless of the adversity regardless  of the opposition  regardless of the trial and tribulation  nothing can stop you the only thing that  can stop you  is you no situation no circumstance no  piece of adversity can define your life  never let the circumstance define  and i'm not retreating i'm not running  i don't care what they say on paper i  don't care if you say we outnumbered  we live by this and we die by this we  don't retreat  we don't run we gonna stand we gonna  live we gonna die by  what we stand for and everybody gonna  know what we represent  and what we're part of i got staying  power  i got staying power be encouraged today  that no matter what you walk through no  matter how broken your marriage is  no matter how many times you fail there is within you  a spirit that is greater than whatever  is  going on around you if you would be  willing to fight your way  through this battle fight your way through cancer  fight your way through that academic  struggle fight your way through divorce  fight your way through it if you are  willing to fight your way through that singing career  fight your way through boxing fight your way through football  i'm telling you at the end of the fight  it's going to come victory  and as you crawl up  and out of that dismal and wretched  place as you rise above  what you were and as you take the form  of who you are supposed to be  you will see that in the very act of  standing up in the very act of fighting  on  you will become and you will remain  unbroken you
