I am sitting here right now and thinking how in the world I am to follow through with achieving something in this one lifetime that I've got. For the longest time I have underestimated my potential in being able to succeed at whatever I put my mind to and this is the time that it should come to a complete stop. My younger siblings are already making a difference in their own lives; a brother who has an Associates' Degree and already making the same annual salary as I but with a much more technical job position which offers tuition reimbursement for his schooling, and a sister who is set to graduate high school this year as class president with aspirations of college (she's already been accepted at a school). As the eldest of the family children I feel like I haven't done much of anything other than sit back and complain about not finding success for myself in what I love to do. While hesitating to follow through in achieving my dreams I watch my brother and sister sieze their opportunities and make the most of them. I have to admit that while I am definitely proud of them both I am also angry and frustrated with myself...
Just a rant on how I am currently viewing myself before the start of this new year of 2008. There's nothing else to do but shut the &$*! up and follow my dreams. I shall continue printing out those poems for my manuscript.
