"China has no choice but to emulate the power of America’s founding ideas and its journey through the universal values of democratic freedom and individual rights." I Believe in You Image Source: pinterest.com The world is filled with people who believe in you, whether they like it or not. Some people you can never please because they don't like you. Others are only there for their own benefit. Then there are those who are helpful and supportive because they truly believe in your potential.
You should be grateful for the people who believe in you, respect you, and want to see you succeed. People like that are worth keeping around because without them, you would never achieve even half of what you can achieve.
