The hardest thing and the right thing are the same

Sometimes, the hardest thing and the right thing are the same.  No, I didn't make that up, but that doesn't mean it's not true.  I've definitely grown up in the past couple of months.  I've lived away from home, taken on so many responsibilities, and successfully completed my first semester of college (only seven more to go!)  The biggest thing I've learned though, is how to seriously consider the feelings of others.  I don't like hurting people, I hate it.  But in some circumstances I believe in temporary pain in order to give way to greater opportunities in the future.  It all comes down to how you deal with it.  I just wish everyone could understand that in the end, everything will work out how it's supposed to.
