Being in a city with no familiar faces in a world that you barely understand is probably one of the most terrifying and thrilling experiences. Living in a city with no familiar faces is a bit different due to how lonely it can feel. Although, it feels empty sometimes it's a place filled with opportunity. I am not very religious but I learned in church a story about two farmers praying for rain but only one farmer broke up his land and planted seeds with faith that rain would be delivered. When the time came and the rain was rolling in it only rained on the prepared farmers land. I believe in that principle. No matter your circumstances you can find an opportunity to overcome the negativity. Now, I don't mean to preach because obviously I'm not perfect either. All I'm saying is that having this attitude toward life will give you way better odds at succeeding. Go up.
