Sometimes I sit back and I’m genuinely proper shocked…….. I’m Shocked at how many people living in this country seem to hate it. And I’m even more shocked at how angry they get at anyone, especially someone like me who actually wants to make it better and show their love for it. I’m not here shouting politics. I’m not following any party line. I’m speaking from me heart, as a normal bloke who loves his family and loves his country. And for that… they call me stupid. But I got a scholarship to one of the top schools in the country. They call me fat and lazy. But I train every day. I’m strong, I’m fit. They call me a failure. But I’ve built businesses from nothing. I employ staff. I’ve got a roof over my head and a beautiful family I adore. They call me a racist. That one hurts the most. Because that couldn’t be further from the truth. You don’t know me. You don’t know the things I’ve done, the people I’ve helped, or the battles I’ve fought just to get here. When I was younger I never had no bedroom of my own, I used to sleep on a pull out bed on the floor in my mums lovely little home. I had nothing. So if you’re struggling right now and you’re angry, if you feel like life’s unfair and I do get it. I really do. And if you want to take it out on me, go ahead. I can take it. I’m big enough, tough enough and ugly enough to have it from both barrels. But please don’t give up on yourself. Don’t let your anger and bitteness steal ya future. Believe in yourself. Back yourself. Get up every day and give it a go. You don’t need to tear someone else down to lift yourself up. If you’re hurting, use that pain as fuel. And Turn it into something positive. I’m not special. I’m not perfect. I’m just a normal fella who refused to quit. And if I can do it so can you. Let’s stop shouting at each other, and start building something better. A country where we lift each other up. Where hard work matters. Where people have a chance. I’ll keep doing my bit. I’ll keep working hard. I’ll keep showing up. Day in day out. And I’ll keep loving this country, even if i get some hate for it. Because this is still a great country and it can be even greater. But only if we start believing again. In each other. And in ourselves. So keep going. Keep dreaming. Keep grafting. Sending Love and Positivity to you all. Better days are coming. Bosh❤️🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
