My dear,
Your life’s tough? So what? Everyone has a hard life. Everyone. Why are you so special? Why do you think you deserve heaven on Earth when others are suffering just as you are, and most likely more? Why should you have your dreams handed to you when countless others worked their butts off to get theirs?
Don’t go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first.
You owe yourself a living. No one, and nothing else does.
If you want a great life, then you’ve got to work hard as hell in order to get it. Nothing will be handed to you. Grab everything that you desire, for that’s the only way you’ll get it in this harsh world of ours.
Falsely yours,
Samuel Langhorne Clemens
