>Boring

You mean serene, peaceful, calm, secure.

I have lived in the ghetto, the ghetto is not boring.

Yes, you can succeed in life and raise a loving family. Work hard and pray often, whether it is your education or career, and reap the fruits of hard work.

Try, even if you fail, you can try again. I believe you can make it if you try and perservere. Barakallah.
