No matter what the odds, no matter how overwhelming, no matter how desperate, you have an obligation to yourself and others to do whatever you can. You must try, regardless of how paltry your efforts may seem.

Whatever dire situation lies in front of you, taking action, even the most miniscule of actions, is crucial to who and what you are and will be. If you do nothing, you will lose. If you do something you still may lose, but at least you can hold on to the hope that you have the smallest of chances to overcome your situation. Don’t ever lose hope. Don’t ever give up!
