You know when something's worth it, when you have to work for it.

In life there are times when something will come easily and when you got to work hard for it. The ones that come so easily don't really give you the satisfaction as the ones you have to work hard for. This applies to anything in life such as: girlfriend/boyfriend, grades, getting a good job, surrounding yourself with good friends, and so on. The amount of effort you put into it really shows because you are willing to work hard for that certain thing. I remember in the past, everyone including me forsure, tried raising my social status as much as i could by meeting new people all the time, going out to just be seen so people will know who i am, and etc. But i realized that it's all really useless. That high school fame that you have will die out soon once you go to college because you separate from all the people that know you and than you try to raise your social status again in college and that will eventually die out when you graduate so it's really just a cycle. So basically during my junior year in high school, i just gave up the fact of it because i realized it's pointless. I don't need to be known by everyone in the world because honestly what is that going to matter in the future? All i need is to stay strong in God and know that he will send people that will help me in the future and help me stay strong, leading me to a better future. There are going to be times in my life where i will come upon people that will impact my life and i'll know when i get to know them and talk and hang out. It's basically all the people you meet while building up your social status, they are all just aquatinces that i just say hey to whenever i would randomly see them. That's fine and all but they really have no other meaning in your life. For working hard and studying hard to get a certain grade in a class it's the same thing. There may be someone that never studies or tries hard but still will get a A+ in the class and if you study hard and you end up with a B- or so, i say that B- is way more meaningful to the person that achieved it working hard, than the person who got the A+ so easily with no effort necessary. So i'll leave you guys and girls with a song you should listen to on youtube: Nelson - Breathless. Thanks for reading.
