part‚ it’s hard. In some cases‚ painful at first. I am always caught saying “we can never can tell”. Sometimes‚ it’s just my excuse and sometimes‚ I just like saying it because it sounds nice but there is truth to it. Whoever knows what will happen next?

Never Give Up On Your Dreams I really wasn’t into sports when I was younger. I didn’t pay too much attention to it. I started liking sports probably in middle school.
