Liveblogging The Survivor Finale

by Leave a Comment

I used to be a big fan of the show but over the last few years I have grown tired of it, especially the finale.

Why? Because every finale consists of people crying because someone lied to them. It is a show that is designed to force you to massage the truth. After umpteen seasons it is virtually impossible to come up with a strategy that hasn’t been seen.

People are going to lie. They are going to promise you the world because they think that it will help them win a million dollars. Stop crying about the lies. Grow up and deal with it.

You Can Live Your Dreams

Life doesn’t have to be a series of slaps in the face. Reality today doesn’t have to be the cold reality of tomorrow. You can live your dreams. You can make it happen.

Hold on tight and don’t lose focus.
Sometimes you are climbing the mountain but it always leads into the valley below.
