Fighting is Life

I have come to a conclusion lately. Fighting is not a bad thing. Really. It can be difficult sometimes when your positivity is being undermined. What am I talking about? I’m not talking about a physical engagement here I’m talking about the mental fight. For example:

You made a decision to lose weight but then there is someone telling you that you don’t need to lose weight (even though the doctor says you need to lose 30 lbs) or you look ok, you look good. But looking good doesn’t mean that you are healthy! Heck, no!

Can you imagine what would happen if you just gave up because somebody told you that you cannot be who you want to be, you cannot be a success, you will never lose weight, you cannot love him/her, you can’t this, you can’t do that?

I mean you have to fight for what you really want, fight to be successful, fight to lose weight, fight for love, fight to be sane sometimes, fight for life, fight for it all!

You have to believe in yourself because once you stop believing it’s all over. Reggae Legend Bob Marley has a great song ‘Get Up Stand Up’. Listen to what he said “get up, stand up, don’t give up the fight”

I talk endlessly about my miracle plant but trust me, using aloe isn’t always convenient. I have to fight to maintain my convictions. Sometimes I can’t be bothered to peel and extract the juice but at least I make sure then that I have a cut leaf right by my kitchen sink.

Make no doubt about it, I’m not giving up the fight to lose weight....


Keep away from small people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you too can become great.” – Mark Twain
