There's no one in my life like Jesus the Son of God who died on the cross for our sins. So anything I do is because of Him. Everyday when I get up in the morning, I give thanks to Him for giving me the strength and the courage to wake up again and to have another day in my life. So everyday, as it goes by, I have to thank Him and ask Him for the blessing to see another day.

I think that struggle is part of being a man. When we're born, we struggle by learning how to walk, by learning how to eat. We struggle by learning how to dress ourselves. But I think that something that helps us in our life, in our struggles is having faith. If you have faith, there is nothing that can disturb you.
