Emotional support
is what I need most from the people around me.
I need my friends and family to keep supporting me when it comes to all
of my goals and dreams. My goal to open
up my own daycare. It would not seem as
tangible without the reassuring support that I receive from those around
me. The positive support that I receive
in regards to my goals gives me the strength to go on. Every time someone tells me that they can see
me with my own daycare makes my heart smile, and it convinces me even more that
I am on the right path to doing what I am really meant to do passion and career
wise.
I haven’t had to
depend on anyone financially in years. I
do occasionally need help fixing a few things around the house. I usually have a list for my uncle “dad” when
he comes to visit. My uncle has always
been very resourceful when it comes to fixing things around the house. I’m trying to train my boyfriend but that’s
still a work in progress!
I think that it
would affect me the most if my uncle “dad” was not around I call him for advice on what to put on my
lawn, what kind of plants to plant, what kind of spray do I get for my garage
when it’s squeaking, and so on. My uncle
"dad" is a good man. He worked
in corporate America for years before retiring in his early 50's. He said that he was going to retire, build a
house in Florida, and open up a lawn care business. My uncle "dad" has always loved
doing yard work. It makes me feel extra good when my uncle supports me in the
things that I want to do, because he's always done what he said he was going to
do.
The only other
support that I can’t wait to have, is financial. When I say financial I don’t mean I need to
borrow or get money from anyone. I think
of how much money will I will have freed up when my boyfriend and I move into
together. I’m excited about being able
to split up an expensive mortgage, not to mention the utilities.
My future
challenge is going to be opening up a successful daycare. I will need support, patients, physical help
from family and friends. I will seek
support and advice from friends who are already teaching in early
childhood. Just thinking about the
challenge that awaits me is overwhelming but yet; I welcomes all the future
stress and obstacles.
