It's Easy To DIE, To Live You Need COURAGE

When you want to accomplish something in your life, It is very easy to be discouraged and give up on the dreams but at times like that you need courage and strength to keep pushing, because that is the hardest part. Stay positive and focused because te price you will have to pay for giving up is much higher, believe in yourself and keep going.
