Hi guys. I’m sorry that I have not been writing daily. I’m going through crunch time at school with tests, papers and projects. I want to make note of some stuff before talking about the Word of the Day. If you’re on my Facebook, you probably saw two videos of me on the horse. One is me at the walk and the other one is of me attempting my first trot with nobody right next to me. I’m pushing myself to trot independently, as scary as it is. Why? Because I am a fan of how nineteen-year-old Amy Fleming of Heartland trains and competes with horses. I admire her and want to compete like her. That is one of my dreams besides being a school psychologist. Please check out that one and the Winslow anniversary video. I’m in that as well. No disability can stop you from riding a horse.
Let’s connect this to Joel Osteen’s Word of the Day. Doors open and close every day. A war hero loses a leg in battle. My grandfather died and I lost my homework and fishing buddy. A guy goes bankrupt and loses his business. Yes, we all had doors closed on us, but God closes doors because He wants to give us something bigger and better. Let’s say that the war veteran wants to ride a horse, but doesn’t have the balance to do so. That’s ok because a place like Winslow Therapeutic Riding Center can work around that issue. Yes, my homework buddy can’t physically help me anymore, but he and the Lord have provided me with equipment like Bookshare, Learning Ally and CoWriter. A guy who went bankrupt may find better job opportunities. Nobody will be left behind if they have a positive mental attitude.
God Bless and Happy Easter
