This video clip is by far one of the best things to uplift you and motivate you to go on with your day. There have been days I wake up and I feel that I'm about to shed tears of joy on how much I have grown. I reflect back on my life on how I used to look in the mirror and hate what I see because I would see weakness, cowardliness, and darkness. I would stand in front of the mirror and just be stuck in that very spot looking into my eyes because I kept asking and searching within myself what was wrong inside me that prevented me to do what I wanted to accomplish. The tables then turned when I choose to change my life and attain the dreams that I ultimately desire. Now when I look at the mirror I see hope, a greater future, strength, pain, courage, endurance, and determination. I have the will power to change my life and motivate others to get out of the holes that they have dug themselves into. GOD I thank you every single day for my life and I truly know that you have great plans with me.
The way things happen and the unusual turn of events makes me analyze what will become of me in the greater future. There must be a reason why I can arrive so late to my home and not get jumped. There must be a reason why the train and bus always arrive so quickly when I'm in a hurry. There must be a reason why I got the jobs that I got. There must be a reason why I meet one of the people I ran the 1/2 marathon with at Fields Corner Station. There must be a reason why no girl wishes neither to date me nor be in a relationship with me. There must be a reason why I must work on my patience. There must be a reason why GOD wishes me to not be distracted. There must be a reason why I ran a 1/2 marathon. There must be a reason why I was able to accomplish running a 1/2 marathon. There must be a reason why am physically stronger by exercising every single day. There must be a reason why I got hurt during work. There must be a reason why I'm now doing physical therapy. There must be a reason why I learned how to swim due to my current injury. There must be a reason why I bought a shirt in which has a phrase on the back of the shirt saying "Pain is just weakness leaving the body". There must be a reason why I found out the grandfather I never met was actually a marine in Ecuador. There must be a reason why I found books that I truly love reading. There must be a reason why I found a really good Calculus refresher textbook. There must be a reason why I got new road bike with several gears. There must be a reason why I work out at the Chinatown Wang YMCA. There must be a reason why I made so many new friends at the Chinatown Wang YMCA. There must be a reason why I played a 1v1 soccer match against a soccer Olympian. There must be a reason why I understand more of my own faith now. There must be a reason why I truly believe in myself with a greater passion now. There must be a reason why I don't question GOD. There must be a reason why things happen for a reason.
Ultimately and finally there must be a reason why I am stronger mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. I know now and I am reassured at this very moment that GOD has true greatness in my future.
