On this day in 1932, Johnny Cash was born. If you've seen the movie portraying his life, you'd know he had struggles. This is one bit of advice he gave.

"You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don't try to forget the mistakes, but you don't dwell on it. You don't let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space."

I never got to know my Grandfather, my father's father. He passed away when I was just a child barely 3. I've heard about the man he was and he loved to hear the songs of Johnny Cash, telling it like it was, writing/singing from the heart. He was also a man that believed in another day, another chance to make things right. This entry is dedicated to him.
