““At some point in life, WE ALL messed up. We did, will do, and are doing some things that aren't right. That will sometimes put us in positions or places in life where we never expected to be. But that doesn't make us 'a nobody.' That doesn't give another person who's in higher or better position the right to look down on us. They too have made bad choices in life. The difference is, they have had the time and chances to correct their mistakes and do better. Your time WILL come. YOU WILL BE BETTER in time.””
