Quarter of the Way

I made every wrong choice a quarter aged man can make. I uh...I pissed away all my money, believe it or not. I chased off anyone who's ever loved me. And lately I can't even stand the face I see in the mirror.

You know when you get old in life, things get taken from you. I mean thats, thats part of life. But you only learn that when you start losing stuff. You find out lifes this game of inches. The margin for error is so small.

I mean one half step too late or to early you don’t quite make it. One half second too slow or too fast and you don’t quite catch it.

The inches we need are everywhere around us.

I’ll tell you this. In any fight it is the guy who is willing to die who is going to win that inch. And I know if I am going to have any life anymore it is because, I am still willing to fight, and die for that inch because that is what LIVING is.
