Photo: Nicole's Thoughts...Her Aspirations and Her Faith!

My daughter Mary Nicole is going to get mad at me for posting this...this is her assignment in religion, and I just saw it saved at the computer....she must have written this last night, because I saw her typing at the computer before she went to bed.....I hope her teacher won't mind my posting this........but I am just so proud of my daughter......her thoughts, the simplicity of her aspirations and her faith!

This is what she wrote....................

       Every time I think about what my future holds for me, I honestly get terrified.
I don’t think I’ll be able to achieve my goals because I don’t think I’ll be able to do what I need to do in order to attain them.  I, admittedly, am a lazy person and I constantly try to overcome this. I sometimes wish my parents were strict so that I wouldn’t be tempted to use the computer, but I guess I have both the luxury and the problem of having very lenient parents. When I think of these things, I just focus on my dad. Dad always tells me I’m his rough-cut diamond, and that I’m so much better than I think I am. I just don’t want to waste dad’s money and time for me. I’m a scholar and we won’t be able to afford enrolling in expensive colleges, so UP is my only choice. My ultimate wish has always been to be able to make my parents proud, so when I suddenly feel like not studying and start thinking about using the computer again, I see my dad telling me to study. He tells me it is for my own good and that God would definitely help me if I help myself, and then, I instantly snap back to reality, and realize that the biggest part of being a student is accepting that studying is where your priorities lie and it will consume most of your childhood. As of now, I’m getting better at ignoring the computer when it’s not needed for my assignments, and I try and hope that I’d better myself in terms of not being lazy. God will always be there for me as long as I keep Him in my thoughts and in my heart. I am ever thankful to God for guiding me during my journey in the life He has given me and for helping me overcome such troubles. In all the things I will do, in all the challenges I will face, and in all the blessings to come, I believe that God is with me, and with that said, I believe I will live a life worth living. A life where I can help others, love my family and worship my God.
