ALAS, the saying SUCKS! But, perhaps it's kinda TRUE:

…
"No PAIN, no GAIN."

(… The MOMENTARY "suffering" acts as BOTH a "TEST" of my "HURDLING" and a GREAT feeling of ACCOMPLISHMENT … WHEN I "overcome" said "OBSTACLE"!

My EX-girlfriend--to ME--about my WALKING:
"WHY do you WANT this so 'BAD'?!"
My reply: "''Cuz they (my PESSIMISTIC, STUPID "doctors) said I couldN'T have it!"
(--'Men of Honor')

…

"If you're I'm) gonna GO,  go ALL-OUT."
"Go BIG, or go HOME."

THIS saying is BASICALLY telling MYSELF to go OUT MORE, & STOP being SHY!

"GOOD work takes TIME."
("Knock on wood.")
My BACK is SLOWLY yet SURELY feeling BETTER!
