My Story
|
About three years ago, I decided to return to school. For years I struggled with what would pay the bills vs what I'd love to do therefore I ended up working many jobs that I absolutely hated. I remember when Oprah aired her final show of the Oprah Winfrey Show. In her love letter to her fans, she encouraged us to find our calling and to figure out what our purpose is.
Well Oprah, I was listening. Because of the odd hours that I worked on top of being a mom and all that jazz, I wasn't always able to catch every episode. However, I do believe that God has a timing for everything and made sure that I did not miss this episode, because there was a message in it for little ole me. For many years I've wondered what my calling was and after many years of ups downs, I've finally found my calling. On June 3, 2016, I am happy to announce that I will be receiving my bachelors of Fine Arts degree in Interior Design, and I couldn't be more proud of myself. Oprah if you ever come across my blog, know that God used you in that very moment to confirm a message that was so heavy in my spirit.
To all that stumble across this message let nothing hold you back. Whatever it is that you desire to do, don't be afraid to take chances, only be afraid of where you might end up if you never step out of your comfort zone. Sure enough you will have days when situations may come up that will make your journey very challenging, but remind yourself that you're on a mission to make your mark in this world and there's a job for you to do. This is definitely my mindset, so take this journey with me while having a lot of fun along the way!
Sincerely, Lawana |
