I think they are wonderfully unique and special and I just don't want them to get crushed by life, but I really don't have that much control over that, so I need to portray them to the world with confidence. I am so grateful for these kids. I can only hope to show that to the world.

There was one theme is your post that really struck home with me and I've had the same "ahha" moment before. <br />That theme is realizing, or being reminded, often because of some kind soul, that you ARE ok. That you are actually more than OK, that you are Enough, that you Matter, and that you ARE doing some things right. Actually, YES, you ARE doing many things RIGHT!!! <br /><br />I am not perfect and YES sometimes life is hard, even harder than it needs to be or should be and it's easy to get caught up in that thinking. <br /><br />Sometimes the negative outweighs the positive in my mind until I am reminded that people can SAY a lot. Society and Life and People can SAY a lot, but that doesn't mean we should always measure our worth against their words or believe someone's measure of us. <br /><br />Keep those people who remind you of the positive and the good and the strength and positives about you close! See them more often! A fresh outlook on a familiar situation can be all you need to take the leap of faith you require to make it to your next goal. <br /><br />Thanks so much for your insightful post and KEEP WRITING!
