"If there is no struggle there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom and yet deprecate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground, they want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters.
This struggle may be a moral one, or it may be a physical one, and it may be both moral and physical, but it must be a struggle.
Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will."
~Frederick Douglass
In this day and time we tend to want something from nothing. We want to reap the benefits without actually going through the process. Who wants to struggle, who wants to endure pain and suffering? Despite how we think things should happen or transpire we all have to go through something. Each of our somethings are different but yet the same. Instead of complaining about the struggle, embrace it because there is something wonderful on the other side of it. Life is a beautiful struggle! See ya soon!
