"My Supports"
The biggest support in my life comes from God. Although I can not physically see or touch him I know that he is there everyday helping me get through this life. I think that having someone that I can talk to and not have to worry hide anything is what keeps me going. The next biggest support comes from my family. My family is there always, no matter what the case. My family is able to pick me up when I am feeling down. The biggest piece of my family where my support comes from is my mother. I don't know what I would do without her. She has my back no matter what; she always supports any decision I make,right or wrong. My mother is always there with a shoulder to lean on or an ear to listen. My son keeps me sane. Seeing the look on his innocent face lets me know that all my work is not in vain. Even after a frustrating day at work, when I see his face I feel at ease. At work my assistant teacher is a great support. She helps me get through the day and keeps me smiling. On the days that she is not there, I feel like I am running a rat race. Right now my family is really supporting and helping me. Currently my job has been forced to cut our working day tremendously, this really frightens me because I have become accustomed to a certain level of budgeting. Then to top that off now we are going to be forced to take a pay cut. I am really nervous while awaiting the final decision, my family is keeping me calm and letting me know that everything will be okay. My fiance is telling not to worry that we will make it and I believe, it is just hard for me. Without my support team I don't know where I would be or what I would do.

Hi Latarria:
ReplyDeleteI am also someone who has a strong faith. I know there is something bigger than me and it helps put the smaller problems of life into perspective. I have a strong relationship with my mom, too. I get scared thinking of not having her in my life and rely on her for a lot.
It has been a tough time for early childhood, education, and social services among others. But, it sounds like you have strong supports from which to draw strength, Still, I will hope for positive news for you.
Thank you for sharing,
LouAnn Rhodes
I too view my largest source of support as my faith. I could not make it through life without my faith. I am sorry to hear about the cut backs at your work. Fears correlated with your career can be extremely exhausting. I am going through some myself. Continue looking towards your supports and God has a plan much better than our own.
ReplyDeleteSomething that has really helped me through my struggles with my job is this - Do not depend on peace through understanding. Instead seek Him and you will find peace with or without understanding.
