Parent here, but this is an excellent article written by a college student; it should be an encouragement for anyone who is struggling with finding their way in college and feeling like “everyone else” has it 100% together – that’s a lie, so don’t fall for it. Growth involves struggle and struggle sometimes involves failure; keep trying, keep learning, and never give up on yourself.
