There is truth in this. There has to be. If I could count how many things I thought I couldn't do, I'd run out of numbers. But I have come to realize that amongst all of the "I Can'ts" I found a lot of "I Cans". I'm not aggressive and I'm definitely not able to confidently overcome everything I put my mind to. BUT...(in order to keep this positive, there has to be a but)...with the support of the right people, all those things I didn't think I could overcome, I have somehow managed to do so. That is where my strength lies, knowing that it's not always possible to achieve those things you want most. You may not believe you are deserving of those things, but someone believes in you and makes you realize that you indeed do deserve it.
This week, I am counting my blessings...the support of my family, my fiance, my fellow student teachers, my mentor teacher, the students, my professors, and God. I can't do anything alone, that was never meant to be. But I know I can use the support I have been blessed with to do my best and achieve what I never could imagine achieving. And that my friends is the beauty of life. You never know where you'll end up and you may even discover something you never imagined. But isn't that beautiful in and of itself?
Where does your strength lie?
