To escape the dim haze of mediocrity, I must be willing to venture into the darkness of pain, hardship and complexity…for somewhere in there lies the bright light of fulfillment. There’s no guarantee I’ll ever find it, and that’s why I need to demonstrate courage, discipline, and brutal self-honesty as I embark on my journey, so I can at least say that I gave it my best.
