Simplicity

You think that in life anything is possible if you put in the hard work and dedication. I've put in a lot of hard work and I've been dedicated but...it's not that black and white, not that simple. There's so much more to it. This is not something you can do alone, I'm used to doing most things alone. In other words "making" it happen. This is something that will take much more than that and I'm kind of lost. I thought by this time, I'd be done with my paper and moving towards completion. In reality, I'm stuck...I'm at a place where I can do nothing more unless someone else is willing to work with me. All I need is someone to agree to endorse my survey and I'd be off to the races. I'm lost, feeling defeated, waiting for a break through. All in all, I'm tired, thinking about quitting once again. The only thing keeping me going is the fact that...I'm not a quitter. My class begins tomorrow and I'll see what comes of all of this! Until then, pray for me! The future is not clear..and definitely not simple!

Faith is a mofo

So, its been months since I've had progress on this dissertation. I was ready to quit but just when I was ready to throw in the towel...
I have faith that I can do it but there's so much that doesn't depend on me. You truly need others to succeed in many areas of your life. This is all new to me. It looks like I may get assistance from an organization to facilitate the use of my survey and possibly sponsor me. How great is that? Since you may not know, its very great.."very great"? LOL... Anyways, I'm nervous about signing up for another session at school BUT...hey, I'm back at it...again. Wish me luck, wish me knowledge, wish me favor, wish me blessing, wish me success! Better than wishes, pray for me!
