Last year I posted articles on how I thought life would be easy breezy, and let me be the great example to say it wasn't. It was hard to find a job at first. Once one came to me, I soon learned I was going to pushed to my limit and beyond to make sure my job security was still safe. I went through a few jobs thinking I could just keep at a pace I liked and was comfortable with, but superiors find ways to take that away.

I also had challenges financially. I kept blowing every check I got, leaving no room for major repairs on my car which I thank God never happened. Im now making less money, but have a new car bill to pay and I needed a reality check real quick on how to start saving money again.

I could mention more about how much hell it was that I went through up until now, but its made me the hard and diligent worker I am today. Im glad I was pushed because now my standards are set higher, and they get higher everyday. All I'm doing now is waiting until I can go get my licenses in forklift, cdl driving, and maybe engineering as a recap so I can have more job choices. I also would like to thank God for keeping me on the straight and narrow, and I want to go into ministry as well to preach the word of God.

This past year I think I've been molded, and now I am a coccoon ready to hatch. But a little more pushing and fine tuning needs to be done before I fully awaken my peak as a human.

if there is one thing I want anyone to get out of my experience is that prayer works, and hard work pays off. And you will have to fight like hell, and through hell, just to get where you want to be.
