One of the people that I worked with this weekend talked on end about being strong - being courageous. Considering that he was an engineer who had brain tumors removed that caused him to lose his sight, hearing, balance, and control of the left side of his face and THEN went on to become a master gardener (and "boogie down master") - I think I'll stop focusing on little problems in life.
There are some things that I am striving for, and I don't see how I could continue to let insecurity hold me back. I WILL take my test this Friday, and if, for whatever reason, I don't pass my national certification, it only means that I will try again every six months until I get it. Also - I'll be auditioning again this fall for Julliard's Interpreting for the Theatre program next summer. I wasn't accepted last year, but that is no reason to hold me back from trying again and again until I get it.
Do you see my determined face?
