Eat Or Be Eaten

My wife sent me this, I have no idea where she found it, but she knew I'd eat it up and love it.... and I did...

"The Essence of Survival:
Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up.
It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed...
Every morning a lion wakes up.
It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death.
It doesn't matter whether you are a gazelle or a lion...
when the sun comes up, you'd better be running."

Every morning I wake up and seize the day, and it ain't always easy, but I do it cause it's a 100 times better than the alternative. I've lived the alternative, and I spent years wasting away, thinking I was happy and watching everything slip away from me without knowing it... Years being the slow gazelle and being eaten and beaten by life. Now, I'm like the Marines man... I do more by 9am than most people do all day! I'm trying to take all I can from life. I'm that lion running to catch his meal, and maybe trying to get some of those wasted years back. I see others all around me living that alternative I was stuck in for so long and it truly breaks my heart. If they only knew what life really had to offer.....
