Phrases and sayings for a good life - Eyal Frank

Today is the day, the final day of ANN, and today I publish my first and last ANN article (The first, the last and one too many).

Altough it's sad that it's all coming to an end let's not sob about it like wimps, instead let's talk about ME! Just kidding.

I have to say that this have been a few amazing years that I will never be able to forget (No matter how hard I try and no matter how many hours of therapy I'll attend to).

These years have shaped my character to what I am today, the experiences I've had have made me grow in many ways and they will probably help me write my book in a few years.

The book will be called "Why oh why didn't I sell my soul to satan, why oh why...". JUST KIDDING, honest.

You're probably asking yourself what I'm going to write about? Well as the title implies I'm going to spread my wisdom with you, I want to do so by using a common things that we can all understand, smart saying and songs.

I took the time to think of the phrases that I got out of music and movies, then I wrote them down here and added a few pointers to what they are talking about, of course feel free to twist the meaning and rape the text you ungratful bastards... Again only joking with you.

Enjoy.

{Hold the wheel and drive

{Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there

{With open arms and open eyes yeah

-"Drive" I brought this song as a whole because it says it all, don't try to run away from your life, take control over them and aim them to where you want them to go.

It's always nice to stand up for what you belive when it's easy, the successful people do it even when it's hard as hell.
