Chicken Dinner, Yeah! [Insert Winking Emoji Right Here]
by Paul Tristram / September 1st, 2024
Cataclysmic Change and Courage
… made me this good… Facts!!!
‘Bad Shit’ doesn’t Elevate you
… it Teaches you about other
people and your inner Strength.
It’s how you ‘Handle’ it all
and ‘Manoeuvre’ your way
Bravely through the Darkness
and out the other side… that
Determines your Advancement.
Those ‘trolls’ and ‘haters’
[basically, they’re envious idiots]
are actually helping you, right…
the PRESSURE they’re trying
to put you under to Bre/ak you
is in fact a Gym… they’re
[Unwitting] Sparring Partners
… helping to ‘Readjust’ you
into a more Proficient ‘Version’
… whilst, at the very same time
showing you [and the World]
just how ‘petty and weak’ they are.
