I take one step forward only to be knocked down, making me take two steps backward. I try to face reality, only to get slapped right back. But here I am. I'm still standing firm on my ground. Life has knocked me down numerous times, bruised my heart, stabbed me in the back, but that's definitely not a good enough excuse to sit here aimlessly, moaping around. Vigorously, I fight everyday, trying to sustain a healthy balance in my life but nonetheless there's always that one unnoticed microscopic virus altering the cycle. Whether it is more hazardous than cancer or iller than the swine, there's never any reason to discontinue life. Therefore, I'll be here packing up my baggage, and gathering my intelligence and fortitude. I will carry it around while enduring my anticipated future, wearing my heart on my sleeve as usual, keeping my eyes planted on that prize. So, Knock me down, I dare you.

Life is designed to kick your ass.
