"No matter where you go in life, people will still be people, hate will still be hate, probelms will still be problems, tough times will still be tough times and tears will still be tears. So instead of running away from them, embrace the struggles and appreciate the fact that no matter where you go in life, people will always be people, love will always be love, successes will always be successes, fun times will always be fun times, and laughs will always be laughs. So stop running away from your fears, start embracing the good things you have."
