success needs failure. just like love needs hate.
everything in life has it's partner.
it's "evil twin".
these evil twins try to hold us down.
they try to push us back.
make us breath our last breath.
make it so our whole life we're waiting.
but just like a boxing match
in order to win,
you have to be willing
to take on a few punches.
love needs hate,
just like success needs failure.
every story is a success story
you just have to tweak the words
change the attitudes.
because if you really think about it...
life is what you make it.
if you want to fail.
you in fact will fail.
if you want to succeed.
you will succeed.
everything happens for a reason.
and this i say is true.
though at times we deny it.
there's no way you can deny it through and through.
if you want to succeed
don't allow you evil twin to hold you back.
don't allow others to show you the success that should be yours.
don't let anyone tell you, you can't.
don't let the world hold you back
from having the universe.
and remember
success needs failure.
