Everyone in life goes through problems. Some deals with it differently than others. With this being said, people sometimes turn to drugs to help them cope with their issues others look for people to help them with their issues. We are put to this world to go through ups and downs, nothing in life is handed to you nor is it perfect. In order to learn about the real world, you need to learn it the hard way. However, no matter how we deal with our issues, we still manage to make a change some way somehow, to live a better life and not make the same mistake again.

            I have gone through a lot of difficulties in life, whether it is at home, school, with friends, or with my mate. Although it was hard to deal with, I still manage to deal with it and get through it with the help of friends and myself. One must be strong in order to gain themselves back up when encountering with these difficulties, but I manage to do it. As time went on, I realize that those weren't big issues. I am now dealing with the death of my grandmother, my mother’s mother. She passed away on September, 30, 2013, a day after my birthday. I never had a loved one passed away before in my life, especially so close to me. Her whole life she has been going through a lot of difficulties. She was dealing with severe diabetes for 14 years of her life. With all her complications, I have never seen some one so strong in my life. Although I have encounter with this problem, I believe that there is just one strength that will help me address this problem, such as, having the ability to regain myself back up and tell myself she is in a better place and being all depress will not help the problem, it just will make it worse for myself. The only person that I can use as a sounding board to help me through my problems, will be my boyfriend and my family. They are the only once that I can trust and confide in to help me through my problems, I know they will never let me down. As I mentioned before, Since I have encounter with this issue, I am managing on dealing with it on my own. There is not much I can say, but to say that in life you just have to be strong and tell yourself, after every storm there is a sun shine.
