inspiration past midnight ....

A little pick me up quote .... to keep that fire within us burning when it feels like experiences have extinguished or is about to put out that fire within us ...

Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark,

in the hopeless swamps of the approximate, the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all.

Do not let the hero in your soul perish, in lonely frustration for the life you deserved, but have never been able to reach.

Check your road and the nature of your battle.

The world you desired can be won.

It exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours.

-- Ayn Rand
