Life drives us to failure and beyond.

There is little we can do about what we're handed. Life can pummel us unnecessarily and mercilessly. We sometimes must bow before the pressure or adjust ourselves lest our bodies break. If we choose, however, to stay bent, then we accept our fate. If we look up to the skies and cry out for mercy, then we are still at the mercy of something seemingly greater than us.

If we stand against the torrent,however, we may become stronger.
If we learn to weather the storm outside,we become wiser.

For each step we take against the storm, we become unconquerable. In these moments, the heavens will claim us to be Invictus!
