College is a very interesting time in our lives. It's a new chapter, it allows you to move on to a new part of your life and allow you to better yourself. With that being said, change can be extremely overwhelming at times.
In times of desperation or if you feel overwhelmed, it helps to know that you have someone there, whether it's a friend, a family member, or God. I find comfort in knowing that if I ever feel lost, overwhelmed, or confused, I can open up my bible and find verses to help me through tough situations.
