Never let someone try to convince you that your hard work isn't worth something. Everything you are working on has a purpose and I'm proud of you for wanting to do great things.

I know sometimes it may seem like caring so much can cause you heartache or problems, but keep caring because there are people out there who are grateful for your kind heart and your thoughtfulness.
