My Support Net
· God
My God is everything to me, and without him, I wouldn’t be here today. Through all my trials and tribulation, he has been there for me and my family. I am glad that I know him and that he is in my life forever. Without God, I wouldn’t be where I am today. My faith has brought me through a lot of things such as, the lost of an aunt, the lost of my step father, my health issues, and school. Having faith is one thing but keeping faith in a storm is another, and having God on my side has strengthened my faith tremendously. Now that, I have God in my life, I couldn’t imagine my life without him. My life is good, and it can only get better as long as I have Jesus.
· Family
My family/God family means everything to me. They have been there to support me emotionally, mentally, financially, and spiritually since the day I was born. There hasn’t been a day that goes by that my family wasn’t there to give me their support. They have taught me how to love one another, care for one another, and help one another. The support that I got from my family helped me to believe in myself, love myself, educate myself, so I wouldn’t lack the knowledge I needed to succeed in life. There a lot of people out there who wished they had a family who supported them, especially, when it came to them making their own decision in life. I’m glad that I am able to make my own footprints in life and not follow in someone else’s footprints unlike, other people. To lose my family support would be devastating because they are always there when I need them, and I would be lost without them. Having a family that supports you can build confidence, structure, and courage in a person, and I thank God for them and their support.
· Boy Friend
My boy friend is the love of my life, and I cherish every moment with him even though he makes me mad at times. He is a very supportive boy friend. He supports the idea of going back to school even though it takes up a lot of my time. He supports me emotionally, financially, and spiritually. It is very rare for me to find someone who can support me in all three of those aspects at my age. I am blessed to have Nick in my life right now because he has taught me how to love again. I thought I could never fall in love again, and if it weren’t for Nick, I wouldn’t be able to experience it again. Love brings the best out of me, and I am glad that I have someone share it with, and there to support me no matter what.
I can imagine raising a child all by myself would be a challenge. I don’t think I would be able to raise a child without God, my husband, or my family. Having all three support groups would help me emotionally, practically, and physically. They would give me the strength, the patience, and the ability to raise a child in this day and age. They would also, help support me raise my child, and help me to make the right decision for his/her future. Without the daily support of God, my husband, and my family, I believe I would struggle trying to make ends meet. I wouldn’t want to live my life without the support of my love ones, especially when it is a time in my life when I need them the most.
