Discussion»Statements»Rosie's Corner» Has anything/anyone ever inspired you to do what you didn't think you could or become whom you didn't think you were? Wanna share?
People who thought I could be better than what I was and who treated me like a had half a brain whether or not I thought I really did. A former boyfriend who helped me financially many times years after we were together. Seeing other people do OK at things I thought I would be able to handle if I just buckled down. The example of my brothers who were very ambitious and clear-thinking but still popular and charismatic. But mostly was just I wanted to be able to support myself without depending on handouts or support from others. I didn't want to always have to owe people.
I experienced that too m'dear. People around me who thought I could do better than I thought I could. Giving me confidence in myself was a great gift and it didn't come only from one person. I had cheerleaders along the way in my life and I will never be able to repay them for that gift. I love your answer a lot. I see that you were very fortunate in having such folks in your life too. I'm glad. Thank you for a fine answer officegirl and Happy Wednesday! :)
