Support from others encourages us and motivates us to push
ourselves in achieving goals that we have always wanted to accomplish. When I
think about support, I consider it as having someone who or something that
stands beside me to walk with me through my journey. Support is having a strong
foundation to stand behind us as guidance and to provide a sense of direction.
I am blessed to have family who supports me in my time of growth and in my time
of need.
I start my day off by thanking God for allowing me to see
yet another day. I find support in God because he gives me the strength to
conquer daily challenges and to use those difficulties as a foot stool to stand
above. If there is ever a time that I feel helpless, I know that I can look to
the hills and know that I am not weak because my help comes from the Lord. To
see the love and happiness in my son eyes each day reminds me that not only am
I supporting him; however, he supports me in many ways than one. He encourages me to be better and to do better.
His smile is a way that I feel as though he is telling me “job well done.”
My family is very supportive and it is a great benefit to
have those who love you, believing in you every step of the way. It will be difficult not to have the support
of my family. Just as the saying goes “birds flock together;” therefore,
support is the foundation for a strong platform.
One challenge I would have is losing my health and strength.
I am a person who gets the job done and knowing how to take initiative in the
things that I do, and losing my physical ability will be difficult to adjust
to. At times I have witnessed that some things do not get done unless I do
those things myself, and even though I am thankful for the support system that
I have; not being able to do for myself in many ways than one will be difficult
to cope with.
