You have to keep striving for the things you want in this world and realize that although you may not have any money you are still richer than most of the people on this earth. The devil loves to put obsticals in the path of the people to rob them of their confidence. But look at all the things you have that money can't buy. You are free to go where you want when you want. You don't need anyone's permission. All you need is transportation. You have a job to make enough money to pay your bills and buy yourself something to eat. You may not have designer clothes but they are decent and clean and you dont have to hang your head in shame. You are warm in the winter and cool in the summer and you are sheltered from the elements. So be thankful for what is yours and stop envying rich people who may not be as rich as you are.

Quitters never win, And winners never quit. If you just give up, That's all you're gonna get. If you want to be someone, Get something out of life, You must first put something in, Or all you'll get is strife. Life is like a bank account. You get whate're you save. You get what you put into it. You get back what you gave. Cast your bread upon the waters, And after time has passed, It comes back to you in waves, The past does not stay passed. Be willing to work for what you get. Be willing to earn your keep. Don't give up when things get tough. Don't just lie down and weep. Put your best foot forward. Remember you're not alone.; For God helps those who help themselves. Just keep on keepin' on.
