Let me tell you something you already know. The world isn't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place, and I don't care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently - if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it isn't about how hard you hit, it's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. Now if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth! But you gotta be willing to take the hits. And not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be because of them! Cowards do that and you aren't a coward. We both know you're better than that! I'm always going to be here for you, no matter what. No matter what happens. You're my friend and you're my blood. You're the best thing in my life. But until you start believing in yourself, you aren't going to have a life.

See you on the other side.
