The following passage was mailed to me through the internet.
REMEMBER ONE THING : Never give up on your dreams.
People who go to college are incredible.
We go to classes. We read and absorb and are comprehensively tested
on heavy amounts of varoius materials. We sleep very little. We
drink ourselves into oblivion. We kill ourselves with several
types of smoke.
We cough and keep sneezing. Someone is always sick. Someone is
always complaining.
We become attached to close friends. We smother each other. We
lean too much, but our friends don't mind.
We think often of the past and want to go back. We know we cannot,
and soon we won't want to.
We all had separate lives, families, backgrounds and pasts. We
live totally different from how we used to live. We are frustrated
and sometimes want to give up, but we never stop trying, and our
friends won't let us.
We disregard health. We eat awful foods.
We are forced to think about the future. We are scared and
confused. We reach out for things, yet we don't find them.
We try to sort out our minds, which are filled with studies,
worries, problems, memories, emotions--powerful feeling
We wander the campus looking for happiness, which can be found
in a friend's smile.
We hurt--a lot, but a friend always tries to take the hurt away.
We keep going, though, because above all else, we never stop
learning, growing, changing, and most important dreaming. Dreams
keep us going and they always will. All we can do is be thankful
that we have something to hold onto, like dreams and each other.
*Pass this on to your friends
