Ant’s Quotes




Don’t sweat the small stuff
Our life is very long
Take each lesson even if rough
In stride for one day you’ll be strong.
–
Take each opportunity
That comes your way
Don’t get caught up in scrutiny
Make the most of every day.
–
Just keep going
You’re always in motion
Crushing your journey
With your inner devotion.
–
Someday you’ll move miles
And on others just inches
Do so with a smile
Even when life pinches.
–
Always experience grace
With general gratitude
Move at your own pace
Exhibit a positive attitude.
–
This journey is important
It’s where you become the best
The steepest climbs are potent
But you will pass this test.
–
Now give yourself a hug
Because you’ve nearly made it
Feel your heart and pride tug
For the progress you created…

b ut not quite.
C an you try harder, yes so you will.
D etermined to achieve all your goals.
E dification will surely
f ollow as you do.
G randiose gestures of satisfaction.
H appy thoughts of accomplishment.
I ngenuity got you here and it will get you there too.
J udge not, you haven’t walked in thise shoes.
K ick back, and enjoy your own life.
L et your past go.
M ake and follow through on commitments.
N ever let any challenges slow you down
o r you’ll give up.
P anic is just an overreaction to stress.
Q uietly, gently, but consistently,
r eassure yourself.

T urning back now, just isn’t an option.
U nlearn what you have learned.
V ictory is within your grasp.
W hat is stopping you?
X enons don’t work for change but you do.
Y ou got this, all of it.
Z igzag through all obstacles like always…

Ivy had an amazing gift
As her talents fuse the rift.
Like birds of a feather
Bringing everyone together.
And giving us all a lift…

From the deepest depths of my soul there is a single small light.
This is the beginning, a long road to make it grow from an ember to a fierce blaze.
Tread lightly and cry as much as you can.
Your heart is rebooting, bare with the pain the burning and the radiating tingles.
I swear it’s going to be better than alright faster than you think.
You face your pain you invite it you bask as swim in it.
This processes and heals you and fast it’s just very hard and very intense.
You’re doing it, I don’t know but this is a rebirth. Hang on and keep going!

Hey there, Watson what did you do?
Where has life landed you, friend?
Tell me tales of what you’ve lived through.
And how on earth they all will end?
–
I traveled deep into the darkness.
And I found light on the way out.
Most of my lessons far from harmless.
But that’s what my journey was all about.
–
Countless persons, experiences and such.
Formed the lessons I referenced before.
Love and strength were my only crutch.
Venturing past each slamming door.
–
What can I tell you my dearest friend?
Of what this world has given me.
Realities harshness doesn’t end.
Or a sweet reward of liberty.
–
Loving hard is not enough.
For person’s not worthy of a love.
No peace or beauty can be rough.
When all they do is push and shove.
–
Changes happened at this point.
An adoration for me I did find.
My gifts and talents I anoint.
As strength and power fill my mind.
–
The answers all kept coming.
To the questions remaining in my life.
With all my passions continuously summing.
I found the courage to leave my wife.
–
Toxic narcissism was her art.
From the beginning of our life.
Only when we were apart.
Did I realize I never had a loving wife.
–
Moving to a far away land.
I began the changes that never end.
Feeling empowered and really grand.
Starting affirmations I became a best friend.
–
A new career, no longer a phony.
I started writing for a living.
Helping me pay my alimony.
And providing me was sorely missing.
–
Purpose, usefulness, and daily challenge.
Or a steady part of my career.
This is how I get my revenge.
Building a future not muddled, but clear.
–
Final words my friend for you.
We can drop a needless fuss.
The brightest future now in view.
Succeeding example for the rest of us…
