A new outlook on life
I never knew there were so many amazing people out there! So many wonderful men, women, and children just doing their part to lend a helping hand. I went to the special Olympics for the school district today! It was such an uplifting experience, I wouldn't miss it for the world! There were so many volunteers from around the town, parents, teachers, high school students, nurses, coaches. It was so wonderful to be apart of it.. I originally went there to watch my sons class participate. But as the morning went by I became more than an observer! I became a volunteer! I was in there with the teachers helping the kids play the games and leading them to the next line. I fell in love over and over again today. Every child that was there today has stolen a piece of my heart!!! I was no longer just a person to them I was now a friend, a helper, a teacher. I have spent a lot of time in prayer and in deep thought about my purpose in life. And although it has taken a few months I know that this is my job. My goal in life is to help special needs children, help them to make a stand and be who they are in life. I want to help my son along with any other child that I can. So this is my path. This is the job that God has put me in this world for! I am so thrilled that I can't wait to get started on my new destiny. My love, and my life to be served to God by helping others in need. I am so blessed to have been given this opportunity, and I thank the good Lord above for showing me the new path that my life will take. I will be here for anyone who needs a friendly voice, or chat, advice, or just someone to vent to. I am going to be doing a lot of research and look into some college courses to help me achieve my goals. My son has been such an inspiration to me. He is my heart, and soul, along with his brother. My children have given me purpose and I am so grateful to them!!
