1. "The past can hurt you. But the way I see it, you can either run from it or learn from it." -Rafiki

As a child, this quote might not mean much to you. As an adult, it all makes sense. When you get older, you begin to experience things that might make you sad, mad, angry, or all of the above. There are things that happen in a lot of our lives that we try to avoid and pretend didn't exist or happen. However, this quote gives us simple and helpful advice. We may make mistakes or get hurt by others, but we have to learn from our past or it will repeat itself.

2. "You are more that what you have become. You must take your pace in the circle of life." -Mufasa

Sometimes in life, you feel like you don't have a place; like you don't belong anywhere. This quote reminds us that there will always be somewhere for you. You have a destiny. Your life has a meaning and a purpose. Finding you place and role in life may be difficult, but the fact that you are alive means that you have a place in this world and a role to fulfill.

3. Life's not fair, is it? You see, I ... well, I shall never be king. And you ... shall never see the light of another day. Adieu." -Scar


This quote brings to light the fact that there will always be people who try to tear you down and stop you from moving forward. People will be jealous of you, threatened by you, and do everything to shut you down.You cannot let people tell you what you are capable of, show them. Just because one person does not believe in you or one hundred people do not believe in you, doesn't mean that you shouldn't believe in yourself.

4. Never forget who you are. -Mufasa

With the things life throws at you, it can be easy to lose your way and venture far from your path. This quote reminds us that we need to stay true to who we are, regardless of the trials we go through or the things that change us.

5. Hakuna Matata -Timone & Pumba

This quote basically tells us to stay calm and try not to worry. It literally means no worries for the rest of your days! When going through things, try to remember that you have to go through the valley to get to the top of the mountain. Don't live your life full of worries.

The Battle Between College And My Mental Health

College isn't easy, and I'm afraid I'm not going to make it at the rate my mental health is going.

Everyone tells you that college is hard, but they fail to explain why. Sure, classes are hard. Math sucks, and political science can be so boring. But that's not even what's killing me about college. What's killing me about college is my deterioating mental health.

As a college student, I feel as if people don't understand just how exhausted I, and fellow college students are. We have so many things going on, all the time, and sometimes it's hard to explain to people how we feel. Personally...I'm tired. I'm sad. And I'm struggling every single day with my emotions. But the thing is, it hasn't always been this way. I haven't always hated school, so why am I feeling like this now?
