Pressing On!

You know, I have realized recently that I am always “doing something.” My life partner tells me that I am stressing myself out because, as you know, I am always tired. Well, I don’t see the struggle as “stressing,” I see it as “pressing.” I am pressing on with my life. You see, we are given a start. Where we end up is up to us.

I know I have a bit much on my plate–a full time job, I am STILL in graduate school working on a 2nd degree (trying to get into another graduate school to work on my Ph.D.–shhhhh), I have family, I have church, community activities AND now am pursuing a position in community service.

People keep asking me why am I pushing myself so hard. Well, why not? If you are not at the place in your life where you envision yourself, why not work as hard as you can to get there. I want to be comfortable enough with myself that when I say, ‘Ive done my best’…. I will be telling the truth!

What about you?
