If life has taught me anything it’s that it is a constant battle of survival. Life has been hard these past couple of years. Every time it seems like we’re actually catching up and getting ahead, life pulls us back further behind than ever before. But what are my husband and I going to do, quit? Maybe so if it was just the two us (and I’m sure I would have quit a long time ago if it was just me), but with our daughter depending on us, how could we even consider it? And I don’t believe having a child is the reason for all the hardship, even if she wasn’t planned in the beginning. If anything she’s fueled the fire under our asses, forcing us to get up and actually do something about our situation in life. I don’t think we’d be as motivated to better ourselves without her. Yeah, life has been tough, but it's the continual uphill climb that has made me so strong. And my love for my family is what keeps me going.
“The desire to move forward in life is tempered by fear of the unknown, fear of being equal to one’s circumstances, and worry that something will go wrong (as it so frequently does) and set us back in a position worse than before.â€
