Run, Forrest. Run

Being in Ohio has made me realize something. The new places and cities we visit help us grow as people. Travel is what grows us. Whether it is Ohio, Florida, or travelling to Thailand for a few months, those people come back with a better knowledge of the world and themselves. Going to a new place with no prior knowledge of your surroundings helps you realize how beautiful this world is. To do this, you must be able to leave your "home" and everything that is associated with it.

My advice to anyone who is reading this is do not let anything hold you back from what you want in life. If there is something that is not letting you be who you are, cut ties with it and move on. Because in the end, the most important thing in life is yourself. Like Charlie's "Golden Ticket" in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, keep a hold of your dream and don't stop until you get it. Because your aspirations and your well-being is more important than something that does not let you reach them. But keep in mind, don't forget your home and the people that sculpted you. They will always be there for you and love you until the very end. And you will be able to celebrate your accomplishments with them, so you will realize how far you have come.

So, run Forrest. Run.
