A Lit Match

To say that life is full of difficult situations is an understatement. The truth of the matter is that we are completely responsible for the chance occurrences that implement the changes in our lives. This is the basis of struggle.
What path you choose is completely up to you. Blame nobody else. Seek improvement in yourself and how you do things. This will make you a happier person. Have confidence in the people around you and expect great things from them because eventually they will not only achieve to your standards but will appreciate your encouragement.
Celebrate every accomplishment. Congratulate yourself on just surviving this far and becoming who you are. Things could have been more poorly influenced and you could be a lesser refined individual. Acknowledge the events that improve your perspectives and make sure not to repeat a mistake too many times.
Love freely, openly and naturally. Don't let anybody limit you or anything you do. Define yourself.
Don't be afraid to speak your mind, it may save you years of agony in trade for moments of discomfort.
Be confident in your decisions. You made a decision for a reason. Growth changes perspectives but don't think that throwing away what helped you grow is good thing. You don't discard sunlight from a plant, you need to keep it in the light. 
Finally, emotions are deadly, express them, liberate them from your heart. Keeping them in will eat away at your passion and determination. Your will to survive is linked to these things.
Remember that setting goals is a great practice. And that tweaking them is even better, don't settle on the first thought but don't easily discard it either. Love them both and see which way the stronger love takes you.
Thank you for reading.
