Life is vexatiously cluttered with obstacles and challenges‚ however‚ the way we undertake and overcome these challenges ultimately define us. Ben. E King’s “Stand by me” perfectly summarizes this. Although many may view this as a romantic song‚ I see it as motivational and expresses a message applicable in everything I do.
