Find what you love, and let it kill you.

Find what you love...

Find what you love, and let it kill you.  You will die one day and when you lay there on the bed of what seems like sharp nails of regret digging into your back, you will count your last minutes, you will reflect. As you lay there face to face with your skeletons from the past, they will remind you of all of the dreams you could have had but were too hesitant to grab. It was right in front of you. You had the opportunity, you had the vision but when it came time. You asked yourself "what if" instead of "why not?"

Everyone looks for success in life. But what is success? Success is happiness. Success is failure. Success is working your ass off every day to make YOUR dream come true. It's your dream. If you want it bad enough...go all the way. You will not be understood. You will not be supported by many. Whatever it takes, go all the way. You might lose friends, you might lose sleep, you might lose money, you might lose your mind. One thing you will never lose is your dream. That dream will follow you, it will always whisper in your ear.  Will you grab it when you have the chance? Or will you hesitate when it's right in front of you. Don't blink, now it's gone.

Finding what you love is the easy part, letting it kill you is what the white sheep have a problem doing. There are only a few black sheep that are courageous enough to risk losing it all to make a dream come true.

Do it. Go all the way. Let your love, your dream, kill you, otherwise the grim reaper of regret will do it for you.
