My Supports




Count the garden by the flowers, never by the leaves that fall.  Count your life with smiles and not the tears that roll. 


     My first support is Jesus Christ; he is the one that allows me to see every day. Through his strength, I can carry out my daily routines. Sometimes when things seem most difficult for me and I think that I cannot make it, I just call his name “Jesus” and he is right there with the support I need.
    I receive a lot of support from my family members. Before my mother and father passed away, they showed me a lot of support. My parents always wanted me to get a higher education. My children often tells me how pride they are for me because I decided to continue my schooling. My daughter asks, “Ma have you finish your school work”? Some days she will volunteer to fix dinner so that I can do my school work. My oldest sister is always telling me how great I am, and how I have accomplished so much, and how I should  not give up because I have come so far.
The support I receive is always encouraging to me. This support gives me the power to endure.

  1. I think it's awesome that your children are so supportive of you continuing your education. I'm sure it's not easy to work and take care of a family while taking classes. You are lucky to have children that will help you out by cooking dinner and picking up extra responsibilities. And what a great example you are setting for them, putting so much value on education! Good for you!!

    1. Sheena, as I read your post I felt the power of support you have from your family. Your children see in ou the determination and drive to accomplish the gaol of completing your Master's degree. When we have the suppport from people who love us inspite of our short comings or goings "We will succeed. "
