We are giving up

Towards the end of the school year each student starts to either give up because they know they are going to pass or go into a panic because they are going to fail a class. We all have this fear that if we fail then we are just going to fail at everything.Well that's not the case. While I was reading over the past few days I realized something. Each student has a different mindset and within those mindsets we have a fate. Fate isn't something that you just know, it is something that you feel. Our fate for the rest of this school year doesn't lie in our teachers hands, it lies in ours. We are the only holder of our fate and for that very reason we must take a step back from the chaos we call High School and take a breath. You must first see want you want and realize what you need before you can step forward in life. From only then will you know the feeling of success. You will know what is it like to achieve something that you have always wanted to. You must not fight against what is going on and rather embrace the problems. We only have a few weeks left in school. Lets get our butts into gear and show that we have learned something. It may have seemed like we all gave up but when in all reality we sat, we learned, and we will teach.
