Check out "The Arena", an uplifting Pop Rock song by new artist GlowDriver.

This song is for everyone who has lost someone they've cared about, or watched people they love fall ill. Or been hungry, or scared, or lonely. Or struggled to pay their bills, find love, or find a good job.

And especially for anyone who is losing hope. This message for them is to hold on, hang in there. Believe in themselves and the good that exists in this world.  

Theodore Roosevelt, in his “Man in the Arena” speech from 1910, said this:

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

Let's face it. All of us are in The Arena, or have been, at some point. And this song is my message to anyone struggling right now. 

Believe in yourself, and NEVER quit.
