this is kind of hard to understand but, sometimes you can try so hard at something, sometimes you can be so, so prepared….but still fail. and with every time you fail, its painful. it causes sadness & it causes disappointment. i’ve often said, “a mans character is not judged, after he celebrates a victory, but by the way he acts when his back is against the wall.” so no matter how great the setback, how severe the failure, you never give up. YOU NEVER GIVE UP. YOU PICK YOURSELF UP, YOU BRUSH YOURSELF OFF, YOU PUSH FORWARD, YOU MOVE ON, YOU ADAPT, YOU OVERCOME, THAT IS WHAT I BELIEVE. so, there are those that have been so offended with my actions, they might have lost faith in me. i absolutely respect your decision to do that. an, im not talking to them, im talking to those people who still believe, tonight, i speak to those who still proudly stand next to me. you have not given up on me, and i will not give up on you. this is my everything. so im not gunna say tonight that im gunna work harder, that im going to be more dedicated, I WONT BE STOPPED. I CAN’T.BE.STOPPED .
