Take a Step Back

Life isn't always what it seems and even if it is fairly close to what you think it seems, it's not. It takes a mighty thin pancake not to have two sides, and no matter how you view what is going on, there is always another side of the story. Whether that be a friend with whom you are arguing, or a parent who sets a rule that you disagree with, or even your plans and your dreams against your Father in Heaven's plans and dreams for you. Sometimes we go about our daily lives thinking that nothing is going to change, no big exciting event is going to change your life at all that day, but then you look back at the road you've traveled and you realize that you either took a wrong turn, climbed a huge mountain, or enjoyed the downward stretch.

The harder you work in High school, the better off you'll be in college. Just because your Facebook accounts says "friends" doesn't mean they wouldn't hesitate to stab you in...
