Today I woke up and went to school. Was not looking forward to it because I knew I had two major tests back to back in my first two classes. My 4 hours of studying last night paid off because I got a 97% on my history test. I am still waiting to hear back from math. The rest of the school day was smooth sailing. After school, I came home and started doing my requirements. Since there was no sparring class this week due to colored belt testing, that left me with a couple of hours to relax. Remember, strength does not come from winning against your struggles. Strength comes from facing your struggles and deciding not to give up. - Lucas
