I have thought about this for quite some time, debating over what specifically gives me inspiration or who it is that really inspires me. 

--In regards to the "who"--

there is no question.

My mom.

My mom is the carrier of my strength. 

I have this deep connection that is unlike most mother daughter relationships. It's something that you can't even describe in words. We are so much alike yet at the same time, we couldn't be any different... (yes, I know that may be hard to understand!)

Let me know your thoughts here or at her blog :)

"To dream anything that you want to dream,

that is the beauty of the human mind.

To do anything that you want to do,

that is the strength of the human will.

To trust yourself, to test your limits,

that is the courage to succeed."

What's your excuse?

Do you let negative things in your life get to you? 

Everyone has challenges whether they are big or small. 

but what is really important... what will make the biggest impact on your life -

is how you tackle those challenges.

In class tonight, we learned about an inspirational man named, John Foppe.

Who is this man you might ask?

John Foppe is a motivational speaker who happened to be born with no arms. 

He has such a powerful way of capturing his audience and helping them realize their potential by assuring them that nothing impossible and you can accomplish anything you put your mind to with dedication and perseverance.

**and he practices what he preaches!**

 Take a look at this short 10 minute clip - 

It will open your eyes to all the possibilties that life holds for us and will make you look at life a little differently...or at least I hope it will :)

Anything is possible

 

How do you make the most of your life?

Don't let those little things get to you!

A Day to Celebrate

Happy Birthday, Mom : )

(This was the first shot I took on my 21st birthday & the first shot she took in 21 years!)

Who is your rock? The person you look up to and depend on when you are down and in need of someone to lift you back up again. Who is the person you rely on whenever you are in trouble or just need someone to talk to. What about the one person who would drop anything in a heartbeat to be right there by your side. 

My mother is that person. She has been there for me through all the bad days (and good) in my life without fail. Dating back to my first school play and Christmas concert. The only time she ever missed a sporting event, concert, award, announcement, etc was when she was having surgery or in the hospital herself. 

Not only do you put me above yourself mom, but you understand the pain and hurt that I go through. You understand what it is like to be sick day after day and to have people around you not understand. You make feel like everything is going to be okay.
YOU. You are the one person who keeps me going every day : ) 

I love you so much mom, more than words could ever show.

Today is your day. Happy Birthday Mom!
