Three little words can change your entire view on life and those around you. I didn't understand why I was being pushed so hard to do well in school. I felt like I was being assaulted and heavily criticized. But when I was comforting a friend, she asked why I hadn't given up on her (she was a mess). I uttered three little words: "Because I care." At that point, I realized I was being pushed because someone cared about me, and wanted me to do well and never give up.
