Life moves in unexpected ways. Ive learned that faith is taking the first step even when you cannot see the full staircase. I am putting my faith into my life more than ever at this point I do believe.
I wasnt sure it was possible for me to be feeling like this. I never imagined this happening so quickly. I'm...not complaining.
Today darcie gave me good advice. She said..."Ashley...youre getting a degree aren't you? Its the same piece of paper everyone else gets after four years. I tend to look at schools like shopping (this is why i adore her). You can either buy a shirt from Abercrombie...or you can buy the same shirt at TJmaxx. Its the same shirt...going on your body...except the one from TJmaxx was a little easier to afford and manage. Not everyone can be Abercrombie...but anyone can get that shirt."
So incredibly true. In two more years I will have my bachelors degree in communications with an emphasis on interpersonal relations. After that I plan on getting my masters and move on to bigger and better things. With my slip of paper...I am on equal playing grounds. No matter who I am...where I came from...or where I'm going...I'm me. I will show the world that the school I went to is a slight reflection of where I was...but the knowledge learned in the process is where I AM. I will rise up and move forward. No one is going to hold me back.
Sitting on black pavement wondering what your eyes will tell me next. I sit indian style while you converse with your own mind. Insightfullness bursts from our lips and we are again powerful holding vulnerability by its throat. Thank you for listening to me, thank you for believing in me, thank you...for sticking around.
Claim the day.
Treck on, Girl Wonder.
