MY SUPPORTS
| Tabetha Brooks) |
In my daily life I depend on the support of many people and things. Some of them are:
My Staff - I depend on the staff in my department to function effeciently so that our department can run smoothly. They show their support by keeping deadlines, going the extra mile to ensure that what needs to be done is done and excreta. Without their cooperation and support I will be an unsuccessful department leader.
My family- They are my best supporters. I depend on them for all types of support, but especially emotional support. I feel comfortable sharing my inner most thoughts and know that their advice is always genuine Cannot imagine my life without their support.
The internet- I depend on the support that I get from the internet providers. I am able to communicate with my colleagues at the various education centers across Guyana for stats and other needed information to get my job done, without ever leaning my office space. I can study on line, connect with friends and family and so much more. The internet helps to make life much more easier for me. Occasionally, when my internet is down I feel frustrated because I am unable to get my work done.
My God- Faith is an important component of my life and therefore as a believing christian I depend on the support of my heavenly father for all that I need to get through the day. These needs may include: strength, wisdom to make the best decisions, patience and compassion, etc. I am assured of His support each day through prayers. Even when my day may not go as planned I still feel at peace. Without God's support I know that things will not go right
I have decided to select visual impairment as my challenge.
If I were to become visually impaired or blind I would be sad and frustrated. I would need the emotional support of my family and friends to get by. I would need to learn how to use the technology available for visually impaired persons to do my job effectively. I would also need the support of the community because at times they are not very sensitive to persons with this challenge. With the support of all mentioned I will be able to live a fulfilling life. Without the support of these persons and things, I believe life can become dull and uninteresting.

Nicola,
ReplyDeleteWonderful post about your support. I really loved the quote you chose to share. I also said that I do not know what I would do without my family and their support. They mean everything to me. You chose a good challenge. I do not think I could cope. I would feel the same as you, sad and frustrated. Great post!
Hi Nicola,
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed your post on supports. God is the most stable support. I would not be able to do anything without His support. I think you chose a very thoughtful challenge. I can only imagine what it is like to be visually impaired. I would need a great deal of support to make it without my site.
Nicola,
ReplyDeleteI can definitely relate to all your supports. All of those things are very important in my life as well. God is the most important support that I have in my life. If it were not for Him and His mercy I could not make it through one day.
