Inspiration

At times when you think that you have failed at everything, you have really just succeeded. You have realized that you are not perfect, that not everything turns out just right in life.

Think about all the good things you have done, the good times in your life. You have definitely made a difference in someone else’s life, you just don’t know it – I can guarantee it. If you are reading this blog, you have made a difference in my life.

Think about this: How can I do any better? What can I do to make a difference, to help more people, to change the world, one small step at a time?

Think about the future, not the past. Hope for the best, not the worst.

Believe in yourself and you too can make a difference in the world.

Go and do what you want

Today… let's try to recall what actually happened. It seems for some reason as if everything just goes by so fast. It's good but its bad….

So today we had the math contest breakfast. Which is really cool as usual =D You get to miss class and hang out with friends and blah blah blah… but today, something was different… I somehow managed to pull a lesson out of it. There were awards being handed out… and I guess, some people, including myself, did not get an award, but others who we do not expect to get an award, did. And initially I felt kinda bad for myself, like I felt that I should be able to work harder and get the award and all that… then I realized… as I was thinking to myself that maybe I didn't deserve the award and they did. Like they do a lot of work, they put effort into their work and academics… I do too, but not as much as they do… maybe that's why they got the award…

Someone from where I volunteer called me up yesterday telling me that there is this leadership training opportunity for teenagers in the summer. And she called because she thinks that I would be a good candidate and asked me if I was interested. I still don't know what the program is called, but it sounds cool and it's for free! It's in Michigan, you go for a week and everythings paid for you. I really kinda want to go. But I don't know if I will be chosen. The company only has one spot and there are lots of great people involved with the volunteering and I think that I might not have a chance. But either way, I should keep my hopes up and just hope for the best. If I get it then I get it… if I don't then maybe there are better lessons for me to learn here at home….

Okay, I'm getting lazy…

Ill stop here

Talk tomoro… or a later time!

This is so true, and reminds me of things that happened in my life. Really, we should all just take matters into our own hands. Do what we want to do. Take initiative. Work towards our goals. Don't wait for obvious opportunities to pop up, search for those opportunities! There are many out there… just look and you will find them!
