Adding this for Kelly.

Dorothy: Oh will you help me? Can you help me?

Glinda, the Good Witch of the North: You don't need to be helped any longer. You've always had the power to go back to Kansas. You've had it all along.

Dorothy: I have?

The Scarecrow: Then why didn't you tell her before?

Glinda, the Good Witch of the North: Because she wouldn't have believed me. She had to learn it for herself.

The Tin Man: What have you learned, Dorothy?

Dorothy: Well, I - I think that it - it wasn't enough to just want to see Uncle Henry and Auntie Em - and it's that - if I ever go looking for my heart's desire again, I won't look any further than my own back yard. Because if it isn't there, I never really lost it to begin with!"

Glinda: Home is a place we all must find, child. It's not just a place where you eat or sleep. Home is knowing. Knowing your mind, knowing your heart, knowing your courage. If we know ourselves, we're always home, anywhere.

And this is why you could not PAY me enough to be 19 again! I know it's hard not to care what others think of you at your age but try to work on that. If you do it right in 20 years you truly will not give a SH!T and I promise you it's the best feeling ever.

Do what feels right to you and don't waste your time or your breath trying to convince anyone else of anything that is none of their damn business to begin with. Yes this little problem is also your own doing so cut it out. Figure out what you want to do and go do it. You don't need anyone's understanding or acceptance of whatever you decide is right for you. You're 19 not 9. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, you are wasting precious resources trying to obtain this understanding and acceptance and it's holding you back. Stop it.
