The only thing that makes us struggle is to see ourselves where we belong and not where anyone thinks we can fit. Take your own race because you are the only referee in that match. Don't let anything, anyone or anywhere you are, dictate that. You are yourself the moment you choose to stand strongly for your beliefs despite anyone opinion. Gear on for the struggle is not easy and only the stronger shall win the race. Resist from being somebody you don't know but be someone you can stand for and still be yourself.
