I generaly find my religion gives me the greatest strength, I know where I'm going and I'm not afraid to die, knowing the exact instant is already set in stone from the beginning of time.
All the rest is just details, I revel in playing with those details watching my plans unfold or go awry, and always striving to be stronger, greater, better, more in control, to experience new and interesting things and conquer them entirely. I know all to well one day the game will be up, and this life will simply be a blink of an eye in comparison with eternity, some people base there whole life on finite things, I enjoy those things, and yes they are important, but I won't let something that in a thousand years will be degraded to nothing or a person who will be nothing more than bleached bones bring me down. you base your happiness, your hope, in dust and in the end that is all your soul will be, empty, full of dust.
And I when I remember that I am invincible.

You can take my things, my friends and family, my health or body, but you can never take my beliefs or my God, my soul is invincible. The rest is all just details...
