Never Give Up

Continuing is hard, but restarting is even harder.

Never Give Up
Joshua Graham

Walking away.

Acting like nothing happened.

Forgetting your responsibilities.

These are many attributes that happen when you just want to give up.

Breaking something.

Tears colliding in your eyes.

Feeling nothing.

These are the emotions that you feel when you simply want to be done.

Someone that loves you very much is watching you. They don't want you to give up. Whether that person be a significant other or maybe that person is passed away and has become your guardian angel, they don't want you to give up, so why even think about it in the first place?

Also, your academics are very important. Giving up means losing motivation to conquer your classes for the semester. Your parents, your friends, your family, and everyone else who deeply cares about you; they want you to pass, they want you to succeed. Give school everything you have and don't let it bite you in the ass. School is expensive and important, don't take it for granted.

Lastly, your family is an important cause as to why you should never give up. This can be your blood family, the ones who you grew up around, or this can be your second family (your best friends family, your boyfriends family, any family that you have taken and created yourself full of people that care about you). Your family is always there for you. They have invested so much time in money into your schooling, your education, your career, your life. They don't want to see you give up because they care about you deeply and they don't want to see their little girl or little boy fail. Don't let them see that side. Don't fail.

I have learned that talking about what is stressing me out has helped me not have as many panic attacks as I have had a lot in the past. Another thing is church; praying; anything religious. God is always someone to talk to. But I have found out that talking to my fiance has helped me a lot more because he is physically there for me.

If you need help, or are concerned about something, talk to someone. Talking helps way better than keeping it bottled up inside of you.

Don't give up.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
