BE STRONG!

Young and aging readers, be strong!

University students just went through midterms, and the work keeps piling up. Have no worry! This is only a test to prepare us for what's coming.

To the high school students who struggle with the obstacles of teenage life. The problems you're facing are miniscule. Stop caring about what others think about you and be yourself. Popularity is overrated.

Those of you being crushed by the stress and pressure, stand up and stand firm! It's not over until you give up.

Why break down over something you can't change? Just do your best and be proud of your accomplishments.

Don't feel bad if your extra-curricular commitments are too demanding. It's okay to let some of it go. Don't burn yourselves out, your help will be appreciated and never forgotten.

Lastly, to those who lack the motivation, remember who you're working for. You have a purpose in life, and you better reach that goal before it's too late. Awake from your aimless dream and snap back to reality. There's work to be done.

Remember, we are all perfectly created imperfections. Troubles are ahead. There will be pain and suffering, but have faith! We are flawed for reasons we may never find out, but everything that happens is justified. We are not perfect. We will always face obstacles, that's a guarantee. It is up to you to make that effort to overcome the barriers preventing you from being what you are designed to be. Stay strong and God bless you all.
