To the person who told me I can't

Everywhere I look, I have people telling me that I can't achieve my goals. Whether it's someone that doesn't even know me, or someone that used to know the best of me.

What is the point of bringing others down? Never ever tell someone that she can't achieve her goal, no matter how unrealistic it may be. You want to walk on the moon? Then do it. I will support you 100% of the way. You want to change your mind 1,000 times on what your major is? Go right on ahead, I'll be with you to the end.

But why is it, that there are people out there so willing to bash your dreams, your goals, and your aspirations? Is it because they haven't reached their own dreams, goals and aspirations? I'm just trying to understand, what good it does to tell someone she can't do it?

When a person tells me that in 10 years from now nothing I have planned right now will be the same or work out, it will be my goal to prove them wrong. The first part might be true, things might not be the same 10 years from now. But that's okay, because change is inevitable. I'm allowed to change my damn mind, and I don't have to explain myself for it.

You can call me every name under the book. You can insult my family, beat me up, break my things, but to tell me that I can't do something? That is the worst possible thing someone that I thought was my friend can say to me.

So yeah maybe 10 years from now I'll be a completely different person, but I can guarantee you I will be successful.

Thank you, for making me see the person you truly are. Thank you for giving me the motivation to prove you wrong.
