Hold on to your hope
Even if people tell you it's hopeless.
Hold on to your faith
Even if even when those around you are faithless.
Hold on to your originality
Even if everything around you is carbon-copied.
Hold on to your sanity
Even if the world around you is steadily losing its mind.
Hold on to God
Even when things are tough. No matter how tired your arms are, God will hold on to you.

The author's comments:
I wrote this because it seems to me that a lot of people have lost themselves in this crazy world, and you just need to hold on to your principles, hopes, and dreams. And most importantly, God.
