Not everything goes the way we want it to, no matter how hard we try. The deposit on the house that you just can't afford, the new car, the holiday, the gap year, the relatives you just can't stand, the best friends, kids, exams, fees, work, and so the list goes on. No matter how much revision we do, or money we save, or people we meet, it still may not work out the way we like.

All the long nights we stay up, tossing and turning, wondering if it will be ok, hoping for the best. And still, the end result may not be as we wished it. People will always talk and there will always be someone trying to bring you down, But the thing we have to keep in mind and to work really hard at, is never giving up. Accept it and move on, but don't ever, ever, give up. Once you reach that goal, you know you deserved it. When you finally save the money for that thing you want, and get the grades you want, or whatever it is you long for, it's so much more worth it, knowing you deserved it! 

Its often hard to remember, but know this - never giving up makes it all the more worth while.
