It Is What It Is

 
Don't get distracted by the specifics and
the minutia of negatives and dead-ends;
the world is full of people who are interested in
you not reaching your goals, either by
actively and viciously thwarting you,
or by passively and apathetically refusing
to assist or support you.
 
Let it be.
 
Resentment and anger over lack of faith,
betrayals, getting jammed up, lies,
character assassination, upset over injustice,
fighting off specific mischaracterization and libel,
and all the rest is just an ENDLESS, tiresome
game that can never be won.
 
And if you're spending your time recounting
all the shitty people of the world, you won't have
 any time left to fulfill your dreams.
 
So, keep your eyes on the prize.
Don't be distracted by the gutter trash or
present circumstance.
Don't take on the doubts of others.

Have enough faith and belief in yourself
to make up for all the world.
And keep. on. moving. forward.
No matter what.
