acceptance

This weekend I received an acceptance of application in the mail from Columbia State.

So, I am accepted. Now it is up to me to do the work. I have only one class to finish to be able to receive just an Associate’s Degree.

How simple it sounds, and yet it has taken so much for me to get to this point.

Life is not simple. This simple task is not simple in my world. But, hopefully I can continue on…not quitting, not giving up.

We’ll see….

I'm proud of you. You'll appreciate school so much more now for many reasons:

1)You're paying for it yourself;
2)You understand the struggle it took to get there;
3)It's an almost forgotten but still unfulfilled dream that you're now acting to fulfill;
4)It'll help you attain the future you want for yourself.

I know I certainly appreciated college much more than my teenage and early 20s counterparts.

You can do it. I have faith in you. Keep me updated!
