    I really debated about starting a log. This journey gets very personal at times. It's hard to announce to the world things you didn't even want to admit to yourself. But that's why I did it. It needed to be right in front of me so I could deal with it head on. And I needed support to get through it. Who would have thought I'd find that here of all places. :lol: But I did. These guys have been a great help and encouragement through some tough times for me and they probably don't even realize it. - Pagangoddess

To balance out the warrior sentiment, which I have great respect for, the following speech is geared towards self mastery, for which I think strength training is an excellent tool:



Edit: oops, sorry, this wasn't from a movie so it doesn't belong here. I just had motivation speaches on my mind.
