Well said -- I don't know you (yet) but I do know I very much agree and like what you said. (i swore you wrote something else inspirational but it seems to have disappeared?! i hope my imagination is not acting up again)

Life's full of crap, everyone's got problems... but time doesn't reverse (and time machines are still science fiction) and you gotta keep going forward in search of the happy moments that are the high points of your life. That's what's worth living for.

In my personal experience, talking too much, thinking too much about things has sometimes led me into a vicious cycle... it helps to not think so much and just go out and do. But I always gotta remind myself of this. Keep yourself motivated... who do you look up to? I'm sure they've had challenges too. Model yourself on their success. Easier said than done for sure, but one day at a time, and having friends who are really there for you helps AMAZINGLY. Sometimes I make sad excuses for not seeing my friends, and they phone me up and drag me out and we all have a great time and I'm thankful for that. But it starts with you believing in yourself and you're really young, Kamikaze Badger... you have a lot of life left to live and life is a gift, you deserve to enjoy it!!!

If you don't try, the answer will always be NO. But if you are persistent and keep at it, you might just get a YES
