Its About You

Scars can be stars to remind you how you have fought and won strong battles before and give you strength to fight current battles But they can be painful reference points reminding you how you made wrong decisions before and making you feel inadequate to fight current battles It`s all about how you look at them Birthday can be the happiest day in your life reminding you that you are an year older and one year closer to your dreams But it can be the most sorrowful day reminding you that you are an year older and one year closer to your grave It`s all about how you look at it Criticism can be the ladder to your success when it gives you the desire to prove them wrong and stir stronger actions from you But it can be the root of downfall when you agree with the negative sentiments and see yourself as a failure It`s all about how you look at it Six can be nine and nine can be six a square can be a diamond shape and a diamond shape can be a square It`s all about from which side you are looking at Everything in life has two sides Choose the side that works for you
