First Blog Posting

Hello All,
This is my first blog posting. I have never created a blog before. It was fun! I have to say when I first heard I had to create a blog for my class, I was a bit scared. I am not a big technology person so I thought this would be a very tough assignment. I can't believe how easy it was. The thing that helped me the most was just by exploring the site. Once I became somewhat familiar I began creating my blog. Once I got started it was really hard for me to stop. I admit it did take a lot of time and thought, but it was a very fun project.

Little bit about me......I have just started going back to school and it has been a challenge. I don't regret going back at all, but it has been difficult to get back into the swing of things. I think I am doing ok now. I am a single mother so trying to balance everything is hard at times. The one person that motivates me everyday is my son Blake. He is the driving force in my life.

Purpose of my blog.....I hope that my blog can help others who may be going through a difficult time in life. I was on the wrong path in life and was beginning to drown from all the bad decisions and mistakes I was making for myself. Once I found out that I was going to be a mother my entire world changed. I knew my life was not my own anymore. I had a little guy growing inside of me that was depending on me. He gave me a reason to turn my life around and to make some serious changes in my life. You may not be facing the same type of challenges I was, but you still may feel like you are in a dark place. The reason I say the sun will always shine is because it does. Even when it is raining outside the sun is still shining. We may not be able to see it because of the clouds, but it is still there. It is just like in life....you may be going through a difficult time now, but in time the rain will stop, the clouds will begin to move and you will see the sunshine again. Hang in there....and remember...The Sun Will Always Shine!!
