Q ; How old are you? I'm 15. I'll be 16 on March 13th.

Feelings ; Tired, irritated, content.

Today's Thoughts ; My school put me in a program called 'scholar' because last year my grades were kind of bad. Basically, instead of having a normal homeroom, I have a room that has tutors and seniors. If you need help with a subject, you ask them.

I hate it. 

They're always pestering me and bothering me about never asking for help. I don't ask because I don't need the help. I understand the material completely, and simply. I just get bad grades because I don't do my homework because I don't have time to. I'm constantly multitasking and trying to get my work done. Busting my ass to get school work done, and then I'm helping my friends who need school help, or personal help. And now, I start work soon, so I'll have even more to do. It's so much, and it makes me feel like I'm drowning.

But, sometimes, something happens that is the air that I needed to survive. Just a breath of air, but its enough.

That's why I keep going, and keep pushing, and keep running, and keep overcoming everything that is trying to hold me under the water.

There's one quote that I have branded in my head. I've told it to a lot of people, and I tell it to myself.

"Know that now is only a moment. And if today is as bad as it gets, know that by tomorrow, today will have ended."

Keep pushing yourself forward, because there will always be something for you to look forward to. Always.

Question for you ; What quotes do you use to keep pushing yourself forward?
