the story

have more often than not, wanted to know how far one can go with belief in life. I mean if you really believe, you've got to have this passion that can make you tell the story every time.

At its very worst, It requires resilience and heart and self-belief(providence and purpose) even after it's been knocked out of you. It's a certain kind of a test.

And the story is just getting along and you've got to keep the passion alive. Most of all you've got to keep that love for what you are creating alive. And it's hard and the training alone will kill you.

And it tough to keep the passion alive for the love of the game. I mean if you don't love what you are doing, I doubt you could tell the story.

And that's before people start giving you a dig. and it does take awhile for the story to makes sense. But you've got to keep telling the story and keep it alive.
If ever, you do have your soul torn, you kind of adopt that kind of conflict, it's difficult to quit.

the real icing on the cake is I suppose: to have a highly developed capacity for self-delusion, to believe.
