The Succinct Pursuit
Pursue the truth at its finest
Pursue it for what you know to be true, what defines how you feel
Not it's relativity in regards to others
Pursue yourself
In the sense that in this world everyone strives to be so different without realizing
That it just makes you the same.
Instead pursue the ideal of knowing oneself because that is the way to be unique.
After all there is only one you.
Pursue your own thoughts.
Let not these words be the motivation to discover what should be uncovered
Let the want, the desire, to better know the real you forge a passion unmatched by anything else
The pursuit will not always be met with open arms
Opposition is a must for change to occur
Without it, there is nothing to challenge or push someone to become better
Mediocrity is a disease that cripples the mind
The mind is the tool in which everything else is made possible
If you do not push it, use it to define what you see and what you feel
Then it is a waste.
Pursue nothing but the passions of the heart
The chase for the light will lead you out of the dark.
