There will always be times in your life when you feel everything is crashing down on you, but the key to not becoming cynical and bitter is to try to be optimistic. Hold onto that last glimmer of hope and realize that the tough times will pass.

Remember all of the good things that have happened to you and try to learn from the terrible things. And most of all- laugh. Laughter can make a seemingly terrible situation far more tolerable.
