“And by the way, everything in life is writable about if you have the outgoing guts to do it, and the imagination to improvise. The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt.”
― Sylvia Plath

I am a Phoenix.
From the ashes of my mistakes
I rise up as bright as the burning sun.
I shall never fail, because failure is no option.
I will not break when I fall.
I will hurt but I will not die.
I will ignite in flames of success
And I will smile in the face of destruction.
I am a Phoenix.
From the ashes I will rise.
