my nephew. His dad was a crack and coke addict and left him and his mom when he was about 3. My sister raised him on her own, working two jobs. He just finished his second year at Cornell University and is majoring in bio genetic engineering. He is proof that just because you come from a single parent home doesnot mean you cannot have a balanced sucessful life.

Wow, I've heard many, so it is hard to choose. The most recent story that struck a chord with me was about Hal Elrod, who was hit head on by a drunk driver, pronounced dead at the scene, and recovered through some combination of miracle and personal determination. He now works as a business and life coach, motivational speaker, and even wrote a book called "Taking Life Head On." I've had the pleasure of meeting and working with Hal, and find that he is an extraordinary person with a great story to tell.

you could create the existence you choose, even if it gained't look like what's on your head, it under no circumstances does. i develop into capsized, and by some skill I managed as an instance the boat lower back over (metaphorically speaking). you're properly once you're saying that you're the merely individual who can substitute issues, and that is encouraging to hearken to that - you're virtually there. count on your objectives and your beliefs, and flow ahead to transforming into a significantly better individual. you do not ought to succeed, or wealthy, or rather properly knowledgeable, you merely choose to have got here upon what that is that makes you you. there'll be something that drives you, something you're captivated with, and that is what's going to preclude. Sounds tacky, yet I continually loved the guitar, and that i under no circumstances concept i ought to play. seems I managed to instruct myself, and in doing so I solved countless my issues. i'm no longer addicted to the existence I used to stay, I have an striking pastime, tremendous potentialities, impressive friends and that i'm grateful for my existence. you've gotten all of it too, merely be affected individual and pay interest on your heart, no longer your head.

long time ago, a poor girl once asked for her mother to buy her an apple. since they were so poor, her mother couldn't afford her an apple. so then the mother said to her " my daughter, study and work hard, then you can get many apples as you want".
so then the girl do as what the mother has said. after years and years of study and work hard, the girl then got scholarship for her college and when she worked, she got a high full paid job.
so her mother was true, she could buy apples as many as she wants because of her wealth she got then. later on she moved to australia and live with a backyard with apple trees. she thanked her mother for the advice that she reached her dreams for an apple.
