Your future, hopes and dreams should never be tied down to anybody! The strength lies inside of you to decide at any moment your direction.
Your journey is completely yours. It is unique. Others may try to steal part of it, tell it in their words or shape it to suit them. Reality is no one can live it or own it but you. Take charge of you...
Your passion sustains you. Your purpose is why you were created. Follow your passion but ensure you fulfill your purpose.
