Push Back

Stepping up, it's a simple concept. It basically means to rise above yourself, to do a little more, to show your something special. Life is funny sometimes, it can push pretty hard, like when you fall in love with someone but they forget to love you back, like when your best friend and your boyfriend leave you alone, like when you pull the trigger or light the flame and you can’t take it back. 

 

Like I said, in sports they call this stepping up. In life I call it pushing back. You know, it’s been said that we don't recognize the significant moments of our lives while their happening. We grow complacent with ideas or people and we take them for granted. It’s usually not until that thing is about to be taken away from you that you realize how wrong you’ve been, that you realize how much you need it, how much you love it. Have you ever heard the expression ‘the best things in life are free’, well that expression is true. 

Every once in a while people step up, they rise above themselves, sometimes they surprise you, sometimes they fall short. Life is funny sometimes, it can push pretty hard, but if you look close enough you can find hope, in the words of children, in the bars of a song, and in the eyes of someone you love. And if your lucky, I mean if you’re the luckiest person on this entire planet, the person you love decides to love you back.
