Every day people are faced with obstacles. Some are much harder than others, but it seems as if when one obstacle is overcome, the next appears. Life is life, and challenges will be thrown at you from every angle. The only option you have is to conquer these challenges. My grandmother has taught my family many things, but her most important lesson was to keep your chin up.

Remind yourself that everything is going to be just fine, even if you feel it to be impossible.
Be goofy. Sing your favorite song to remind yourself to be happy.
