I guess it's that's time of year when we all start to think..."Why am I doing all this homework?" I know I always feel that way. I partially blame the weather. When we have those 70 degree days, who wants to be inside doing homework?
I get that feeling of being overwhelmed. My stomach starts to ache! I feel like I'm being smothered by a pile of papers. Is it possible to die from having a homework overload. I got behind one week due to a death in the family and now I feel like I'm drowning! Do you ever feel that way, too? Am I alone in my misery?
Then the light over the horizon begins to shine!!! Now I know why I'm doing all this! Now I remember! It's so I can have a brighter future! A future that I can be proud of! A future that will hopefully make my children look at me with pride! So as the light at the end of the tunnel begins to emerge, I start to feel hope again!
No...I will not be in school forever! Thank the lord for that! =)
P.S....I hope your all doing well in your classes! Best Wishes!!!

You know, I'm 46 yrs old, and I never wonder why I'm doing this. I'll tell you why, though, and it's the same reason that I tell my kids. If you don't have a college education, the only jobs you'll ever get are the "crumbs", the left overs that no one else took, or the ones that they didn't see that fell on the floor. I've been lucky enough most of my life to find good crumbs a couple of times. But usually, there is a reason that they are left on the floor.
ReplyDeleteDecide for yourself that you are better than that, and don't settle for the crumbs!
I am 42 and I have had the dream job and without a college education. So the need isn't have to...it is want to! That is what keeps me going. This is something that I have always wanted to do and I am so happy that I am - best of luck to everyone out there!!!
