About
I have been through so many good and bad times in my life and am still standing strong. I have had the training on how to deal with life issues in an effective way. I have worked with people of all disabilities and have lived experience since 2013.
Life Garden
We are all flowers in in life’s garden. In each of our lives we are going to have some sunshine (good times) and some rain (bad time). What happens to a flower if it gets to much sunshine? Does it not burn up and die. The waters of our so called bad times make us stronger and build up our muscles so we can deal with life a whole lot better. I know it does not feel good, but in the long run, we are a lot better, stronger, and more prepared. I have looked back over my life and if I had not gone through those tests, I would not be the man that I am today. While I was going through test, I did not enjoy that time at all. Those test brought out something out of me that I could not see until I was pushed to the limit. I found out I was a lot stronger than I thought I was.
Becoming a butterfly
In my times of loneliness, I was always wonder why I was going through those times in my life. I found out in those time I was just like the caterpillar who spends time in the coon, so it can develop into a butterfly. The fact is true if we help the butterfly to get out, it will not have the power to fly. That is just like us. In our times of isolation we are getting to know ourselves and how to figure things out in our live. We will never fly in our lives without those times.
Your perspective matters!
