My Supports
My immediate family (husband and children) and my sisters
provide me with the unconditional love, support, and confidence I need to go
out in the world every day.
When my children were younger, they were my anchors. Today, they are young adults, and our
relationship clearly is changed, but we are still eternally a family. I hope I
lend my children unconditional love, support, and confidence as well.
My sisters – one in particular – were always my support
system when I was growing up and today still are.
Today, my co-workers are also my support. We work well
together to achieve our objectives and goals. Our workplace is a happy place because of the support from our lab director.
Finally, I have this one friend who supported me during the
time our house got burned down. She invited my family to live with her and her
husband; we stayed for a year and half. When our new home was built, we moved
out of her house with heavy hearts because we loved every minute of our stay at
their house. I learned from her how to extend kindness to others. We share a
Christian faith, too.
With the faith I have, I trust that any of the challenges
that come my way will be accompanied with supports I cannot anticipate as did
happen with the loss of our home.
