“I fight because I have to…

I push myself because I can…

I push myself to the limit because no one else will…

I sweat because I’m trying…

I sweat because I’m giving 100%…

If I lose, others will lose too…

If I win, no one will know…

He chose me because he knew I could handle it…

He chose me because he knew I could win…

Knowing I could win, maybe he chose me so someone else could live…

Maybe even someone I love…”  A.Rose

I LOVE THIS and will save this for when my five year old is old enough to understand it. Thank you for sharing.
