Why isn't that we can not always have all that we want in life?

I have learned that if I want something bad enough, I get it. Sometimes its a matter of determination, saving the extra pennies I would have otherwise wasted, researching any means available to me to reach my goal. If its educational goals there is a world of wealth at your disposal. All it takes is asking the right questions, networking with people who have succeeded before you and using the revenue available. In this day and age there is absolutely no reason that young people can not go further after high school. My wants and needs have always been simple, but not so always for my children and husband, as a family we have learned to root out the wants from what we needed most. Good luck to you in your own endeavors.

Because then it would be too easy! How can we grow and learn as human beings if we never face challenges in life? And the sense of achieving something that you have truly worked long and hard for is so much higher than getting something easily or for free. Personally I would like to have a healthy mix of the two! A bit of luck thrown in with the odd challenge!
