As a 17 year old girl, I have been through a lot and I have been through nothing at all. If I've learned anything from the years I've been breathing, it's that the world is not black and white. Nothing is one sided and nothing is going to be as easy as you would hope it to be. So, you have to fight. You need to be understanding, patient, kind and you need to put all of your heart into every single moment. No matter what happens, you need to be strong because moping will only wilt you more. I refuse to be someone who chooses to suffer. The most beautiful flowers still get stepped on sometimes, but they grow back. So will I.
