““Contrary to popular belief it is in fact NOT "The thought that counts" It's the energy, the will power, and the actions taken in order to bring those thoughts to fruition, the blood sweat and tears you're willing to spill to forge the thought into reality, that count…Thoughts of action or change are but ethereal nothingness without even the attempt of action to validate their truth, worth, real meaning, and intent.””
