You have come this far. There have been setbacks, challenges, obstacles and turbulence in your life. The triumphs may seem small in comparison to all of the things that have taken a toll on you. You didn't give in then and you must not give up now! As difficult as it may be to fathom, it is ok. I am not minimizing your pain or understating how it may be impacting your life. The point I want to get across is you are more complex than your pain and suffering. Having financial difficulties, family problems, emotional challenges, academic concerns, identity battles and other hurdles are aspects of you, not totally you! You are resilient, powerful beyond your own imagination. Thus, I emplore you to, "Don't Give Up!"
