Standing

I refuse to lay down and be stepped on. Do I look like a clown to you . Because to tell you I do not care what you say I am he standing on my feet and I refuse to be defeated by life I can not lie it is scary walking alone challenging every thing you know Not even sure where to go. I am standing on my on two feet and I refuse to be defeated by the challenges that come at me. I am a warrior ready for war to take out whatever life throws at me and whoever tries to oppose me because I can say one thing a lot of you can't. At least I am standing on my feet and refuse to back down I say it loud and proud you can quote me on that hey I will even sign it for you I admit it terrifies me taking a big Step or just even getting out of bed. It's too late to go back now I am already here standing on my feet.

Welcome to the soup friend! Great piece here, I can relate to it. Life is hard. Yet we must always look for the positive in it, and we can always make changes as long as we stand on our feet! Well done! -Edward
