Your circumstances TODAY don't determine what's possible for TOMORROW....Rewrite the script;-) Love LIFE!!

For it is by grace you have been saved. Ephesians 2:8.

As a child coming up in poverty, you learn to understand your options are far and few in between. As the saying goes, "The proof is in the pudding." If a poor state of mind, followed by a poor state of living is all you see, you believe that is the way life should be, for you at least. It becomes your norm, and you become accustomed. You grow accustomed to the environment, to the abuse, neglect, hunger, homelessness, fear, destitution, isolation you see in you daily life. Until you are shown different & you believe different, and you try different, nothing will change. But when you do, eventually the cycle of poverty will be broken. I had to choose different, not for myself but for my children, for future generations. The one thing I did different was strive for the heighest education possible, it worked. The best way, I believe the only way, to change your circumstances, is to change the way you think, to believe in yourself even when those around you, doubt you. What resonates in you?
