I am here for a reason. It might not be clear now but I'm certain that everything would make sense, sooner or later. I know I chose this because I found something special, something that made me enticed to it.

I know that things would never be easy. They never were. I just took them easily. Now, I cannot do that anymore. The next three and a half years will define a good portion of my future.

Everything is much harder because our determination to stay is being tested. If we are happy, we want to stay here and we have our hearts and minds to back us up, then I see no problem with that.
