 Not Destroyed. Not Defeated. I Am More Than A Conqueror. 

Fun Fact: Ernest Hemingway lost two years of writing - every manuscript, rough draft, scribble and handwritten note - all gone in an instant. 

His wife packed all of his writings in a giant suitcase and someone stole it.

So what did he do? He just kept writing more. 

What I learned from that is there will always be thieves. Takers are gonna take. But likewise writers are gonna write. No one can steal what’s inside!! https://image.nostr.build/0238a84434c739e5edfa058bc3d1ceeb6089ed385d54436ede7059ab402d10bb.jpg
