This is really important. So it's about not looking at them as a whole and not determining them that the circumstances you have now are the cards that you've been dealt. It's really looking back and thinking, what do I need to do now? So stuff has happened to you. And obviously it's, you know, as we record this, there's a lot of stuff going on for young people. But in a few weeks, it will have passed. Whatever has happened, the course will have taken its path. And there'll be new opportunities. And there are new opportunities. Even for people who've had negative experiences. It is not the end of the world. I sit here having just had my 40th birthday. I know very, very young looking for my age. I hope you'll agree, but I can look back at all the times I might've had crises, you know, and at times I could have just given up, I could have failed. But I didn't for whatever reason. And everything's been OK, you know, I'm not suggesting here blindly, everything's going to be all right. I'm not going to tell you everything will be okay, but I am going to tell you that it's not as bad as you think it is right now. And the opportunities are absolutely there. Do not think that it is over, you are too young for that to be the case.
