My inspiration comes from my real life experiences.

Fighting for happiness is the hardest thing you'll ever fight for, but it's the only thing worth fighting for.

Lord, may I think what you want me to think. May I desire what you want me to desire. May I speak as you want me to speak. May I work as you want me to work.
