Graduating and Elevating 👩‍🎓🫡

Graduating is a different type of thing. It’s not just an accomplishment, it’s a mission. It’s a mission accomplished for me. You see there are people who depend on my story to keep pushing, and i’m not saying it’s a heavy weight on my shoulders, I love the fact that people believe in me, that I empower people to push forward. I’ve been mentally lost before, that’s a hard place to come out of. Being mentally damaged is a different type of place, it drains your motivation to want to complete anything. College has been a push for me, along with keeping up with my business, posting content, and making sure I’m constantly standing on business.

See, when I say standing on business, I mean trials and tribulations may come your way, but those who read into the bible, the book of Psalms clearly reads “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.” In connection to this post, my trials and tribulations were me walking through the valley, I clearly didn’t stay there, and I didn’t fear what was to come ahead of me. I knew I was going to make it. My trials and tribulations were tests that were in attempt to see if I could be broken. My trials and tribulations were focusing on others, their needs, and what they would think of me.

I started to think differently. When you notice how people care for you, and the way it’s reciprocated, you see the ambition to push forward and continue making people happy. You also see the ambition to positively move forward through the doubts made about me. I took everything up a notch, I started worrying about what was best for me, just because I passed the class or the assignment, doesn’t mean I was happy with the way it was done. Same for a blog, if I didn’t like the way something was said, I come back and re-do it so that you guys have a better understanding, same for my assignments, I wanted a better understanding, and a better grade.

In 2024 I look forward to the next degree. If that means I have a to keep my focus on certain things, so be it. That’s my career path as a disabled capable person, and that’s also my duty as a SMRTGRL ! I’ve promised to empower the youth, and communites everywhere to come together, to push in whatever it is they would like to do. So cheers to a new year of continuous success, and hard work, because “Everyone wanna be famous, but no one wanna put the time in.”
