Life!

Whenever you are faced with a challenge in life I think it gives you more hope and determination to stand up against whatever you are faced with and have a positive outcome. I love to hear other success stories of when they were faced with a negative situation but decided to stand up against it and tell others their testimony.

Whenever I think of “Blessing in Disguise,” I think about where I am now and how I have gotten to this place. I also think about the certain things my situation has taught me. It has taught me to NEVER take things for granted, to live everyday thankful for the things and people in my life. It has also taught me to not sweat the small stuff, because in the end those things don’t really matter.  I have a better appreciation for life and a better appreciation for living and waking up every day.

As it get closer to time for me to graduate, I can’t help but be thankful for where I am now! I never knew if I would be at this point in life where I am happy to have had the opportunity to come back to college and finish out my academics. I never knew if I would be able to actually get closer to the goal of doing what I love. Having gained an internship for the summer, I see my dream becoming reality.

Be thankful for where you are in life. Be thankful to be healthy and to be able to be in college. Be thankful for the little things in life. These things make you a happier person!
