Grateful

So many storms
So many knock-outs
So many people telling you that you can’t
So many defeats
So many lonely days
But then you rise
And keep fighting
This is not an agonizing battle
This fight is the one you were looking forward to
This is the fight you’ve been preparing for
This is the time when you rise and look the world in the eye
And voice, “Here, I am! This is my fight, this is my life and for that I’m so grateful!”
Grateful for the defeats,
Grateful for the battles,
Grateful for the sword thrusts
Grateful for the challenges
Grateful for the mistakes
Because they teach you to rise and keep fighting
Grateful for this beautiful life and every single breath!
