CS Lewis

So I LOVE CS Lewis. For some reason his stuff just sticks with me. I saw a new quote today that I had to share.

"Hardships often prepare ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny" - C.S. Lewis

Not only only have I had hardships but this week has well... sucked. I have spent most of the week attempting to pull my RAs out of their rut. But in reality, it just sucks the joy out of me. I truly believe that the most important part of my job is working with my RAs but I really hate to hand hold people.

Which brings me to my mother. My mother was all about the underdog. She loved to help people become better. It was one of her best and worst qualities. Mostly because some times she got used. It hurt to watch my mom give her everything to someone and then they treat her like shit. For example, there was this one girl that my mom had in her Girl Scout troop - they eventually started a new troop together. My mom ran that shit! The moment mom got sick, the girl dipped out. Needless to sayyyyy, I am not a fan. 

I think in a way, all of us inherited this to a point... some of us worse then other. But today I just don't have it in me. I think it is an early to bed night.... plus Orientation is tomorrow so I need to be in my best mood (or best faking it mood). :]

Peace, love and goood night!
