It's good to face challenges, but it's also important to be wise.

Hardships come along when they're meant to. The most important kind of challenge you can face is the one that comes along unexpectedly. That's when you're really put to the test.

In the meantime, practice wisdom. All of us would hate to hear a story about you getting your things stolen, or worse. Survival is about doing what you can to remain as safe as possible. If you want to do that, you should get out of your current unsafe environment.

Just my thoughts, for what they're worth.
