Assignment 19- Kalin Combs

The best advice I've ever been given is to "never give up," as cliche as that sounds. I've had to deal with a lot of crap in my life, and I'm only 16 years old. Emotionally, mentally, and physically, at one time or another, I've dealt with a lot. I'm ready to be out of high school and to move hours away from Lexington. I'm ready to start completely over somewhere far away. I'm ready to be an adult, and have a career, and get married, and finally feel comfortable with my life. With everything I've been through, I always look to the future. I'll never give up because I know the future is bright and I'll get there someday. I apply this motto to the smallest daily things, like difficult, never-ending homework assignments. I also apply it to bigger things, like when I'm feeling especially sad I have to remind myself to carry on, because one day all the things I'm worrying about will seem insignificant.
