The uphill battle continues.

Well its been approximately 11 years since that first math class under sir Betco's tutelage and my uphill battle continues. I realize now what that song "The Climb" by Miley Cyrus talks about and have come to appreciate my climb. I will never give up.

I was rereading my very first thesis proposal I submitted (which got approved, btw) and realized "man, I'm using big words but it doesn't look like I understand what I'm saying at all!". Haha. That's naivety for you. But as I retrace my steps, and look back to reflect and see where I wandered to and meandered along in this epic journey, I have come to realize why I pursued such a ludicrous dream in the first place and why, as I am continuing this struggle, am I foolhardily continuing unabated.

The gift of mental power comes from God, Divine Being, and if we concentrate our minds on that truth, we become in tune with this great power. - Nikola Tesla

It's so simple now. Because I was made so. I was not designed to settle, I was not made for mediocre, I know now that I will regret it if I did something half-baked or "Just to get it done". I'm lazy, I get that, I'm also filled with human weakness but that's part of it. Part of what will make this work. I can feel it.

One day, looking back, it will all be clear. But for now, let us continue. Forgive me mother.
