Guys, it doesn't really matter whether or not we continue posting on the blog really.

But it really matters whether or not we continue fighting.





I hope we haven't lost hope.

I hope we haven't lost the will to fight.

I hope we haven't lost that motivation to train.

I hope we haven't lost that faith and support for each other.

I hope we haven't lost ourselves to temporary defeat and setbacks.




And I believe we haven't.

There's time guys, and let's make full use of that time.

For those who have committed themselves to the race, let us earnestly and faithfully prepare for it.




Let us not complain about the things we do not have, but make full use of the things we have.

Let us not be marred by setbacks, but through setbacks, grow stronger.

Let us not be afraid to make sacrifices, but let each sacrifice be a testimony to the perseverance which will lead to victory.

And most importantly,

Let us not see victory as an end, but as a means to an end.

For as long as we do these things, we can proudly tell ourselves that regardless of the results, regardless of the outcomes, we are victors.

For us who have weathered the past long year of 2007, let us not forget what we promised to fight for in 2008.

I find these lyrics quite meaningful for us all. It's taken from a Jap song, just the translated version.

I spend all my days here the same way,
chilling out, relaxed and unconcerned.
There are so many things to do,
a lot of them impossible for me.

It's totally overwhelming,
but I'm always ready to do what I can
because everyone here has a smile on their face.
I may not say if very often,
but I really am grateful for my family and friends.

The time we spend together is so special,
I could never replace any of them.
We've got this moment, we've got each other,
stopping, standing and laughing together.
I'm so thankful, I could cry.

This feeling is so wonderful,
it makes today seem like a wild dream.
I promise you, I'll never forget it, my precious ones,
who laugh with me, support me,
and keep me going..

:)
