"My Support"

In my life I have been surrounded by wonderful people. A strong mother who told me, "never give up on what you want out of life." My two sisters when our mother died told me, "don't quit, mom will be proud of you." My husband and children who saw their mom, and wife go back to school and become the first generation in her family to receive a degree. I say this because it may not mean much to anyone else in this world but the people around me was my strength and my biggest supporter was God. Having these wonderful gifts in my life maid me the women that I'm today. I know some people are not as fortunate as others but everyone needs someone. I know for myself one of my biggest challenges that I struggle with is loosing my mother who was my own personal cheerleader. See my mother only completed 8th grade and at that time of her life by age 18 she had three girls and the only work should could get was sitting with the elderly. My mother never complained but in fact she did what she had to do but in the mist of all that she was able to get on the job training and worked for a lot of wealthy people who trusted, and believed in my mother. She never wanted for anything because she took care of her patients and they took care of her. I say this because when you have special people placed in your path there their for a reason that's how you became the person that you are today.

Some challenges I would have to say for me being disabled and not having the support from family and friends because you are going to need them. I treat people the way I want to be treated. Right today when I am around my elders I give them the up most respect and whenever I see anyone in need I try my best to help or find resources to help them and that's the same way I feel about children I will exhaust every resource to help educate all children form all walks of life.
