I have so often times heard the word ‘no’ and I hate it just as much as my little girl does. I have even been told I throw a much bigger fit than she does after hearing those 2 letters of devastation! Sometimes I get caught up in, ‘no’ and the big let-down that shadows me- sometimes I get angry and it motivates me-Sometimes I am just quiet and I wait.
I would like to think of myself as ‘a glass half full’ girl- most often when I am around other people or even here on the internet. Like everyone else, I have faced disappointment, downers and hardships- but I have learned that persistence is what works for me. Along with discipline-and of course writing things down and organizing my thoughts and plans…!
So you know, all this musing stems from American Idol. Lol… yes that’s right! The part where JLO had to tell Room # 2 they didn’t make it to Hollywood. I found it inspiring to hear her and Steven Tyler talk about how many doors had been shut in their faces... and how many times they heard ‘no’ and how often they had to encourage themselves to continue!
Well… time to get back to work! And of course every post is better with a photo!
