My Supports

   When I think of the term supports, I think of not only people but things that support e each day and help me to remain calm and organized. Each day or almost each day, I try to center myself , by using my faith and giving myself a positive pep talk. I feel that a good day must first start with having a positive and clear mind. I also try to make a list of tasks each day of things that I need to accomplish so that my day will run smoother. I do not usually complete all of the tasks , but I do try to get some things done each day, and I feel more accomplished at the end of the day knowing that I have completed at least one thing. In addition, I would say that my child is my support, being with her motivates to get up each day and to do what is necessary so that she can be taken of.  She has such a positive attitude with me. If it seems that i am down, she knows just what to say to cheer me up. In addition, I have very good family support, If I need help with a task, or if I need someone to talk to, my family as well as my friends are always there to be supportive. I really could not ask for a better set of family of friends. Without some of these supports I do not think I would be a happy person, especially my family and friend support, if I were without them, I think that I would be sad and lonely, because I may not have anyone to share my joys, and trials with.

   The challenge I would choose to imagine would be if there was an emergency, and I could not pick my daughter up from school. If I did not have the supportive family and friends that I do, I would have no one to retrieve her and she would be stuck at school and possibly scared or upset. Because I have people that I can rely on to help me and my child in my time of need, I  feel that I am blessed.
