There are so many things that happen in life for a reason.
People come and go.
Certain people stay.
Sometimes in person and other times in heart.
There is one saying that has always helped me out with life, if you see something you want do what it takes to get it.
Yeah, it could take you a day, a week, a month, or a year.
But I have always believed if at first you don't get it, don't give up.
If that one thing is worth it, worth everything to you, then hold onto that memory/thought for as long as you can hoping one day it will be yours.
You see, in life, when you give up on getting the one thing that you want is when you end up settling for the completely wrong thing.
The one thing that is opposite what you truly want.
The one thing that doesn't truly make you happy and you don't enjoy it greatly.
You see, one thing that I have learned is not to just settle.
You must be strong.
You must not give up, especially on what your heart is telling you.
Now I know I'm not that old, but I have been through a lot, and helped people through even more.
And nothing kills me more than seeing someone settle for something they don't want.
Something that doesn't make them happy.
But I have to be honest now.
This is the first time in my life that I am going to be giving up.
I have what it is that I want the most in life standing right in front of me.
But I can't have it.
Either way I am losing in this battle, so I'm just give up.
I never thought those words would ever come out of my mouth.
But they have. I give up.
