So here we are month later, it all seems so fast. Think about it Sam only a couple more months to go. I waited so long to get to this point I can't believe I'm here at state university, never thought i make it this far. However, this last month has been the hardest thus far. I've been so overwhelmed by my classes and I'm actually quite frightened, I fear that I'm going to fail even though I have gotten a 4.0 in all my social work classes, I feel like that time is coming to an end. I do so much better in class with students and a professor, I'm not going to let this deter me, I'm not afraid of failing, I am only afraid of failing myself, that only comes from complete lack of action. I will never give up the open mind and that means that I'm able to learn and grow even when I take a step back.  I know I will succeed, I know in the end it's not about concentrating on the negatives but  about concentrating on the positives and those little beacons of light that will guide us toward our destination. I will prevail one way or the other, and this I am certain.
