who cheats on ryan reynolds??

I find myself surrounded by people who have such a passion for life and what they fill their lives with. They set goals for themselves. Goals that keep them determined and focused. The more I watch them and the more I listen to them, the more I want to be like them. I want more direction in my life. It’s as if I’m not working for anything specifically at the moment. A lot of it has to do with the fact that I haven’t been in school for a little while. But even when I do start taking classes once again, I’ll still be unsure about a few things. Every day I want to study something different. And every day I talk myself out of whatever it was that I wanted to study in the first place; mostly because I don’t have faith in myself. I find that I don’t have faith in myself for a lot of the things I wish I could do. I don’t feel like I’m enough; smart enough, strong enough, spiritual enough, just enough…
And then there is this new job that I’m trying to take on. It’s a treatment center for teenage girls and although it seems like a place where I can grow and mature as a person, the idea of having to mentor these girls scares the heck out of me. Who am I to give advice and care for someone else’s child?? When I first heard about the position I thought, “Hey. I could use another job and it doesn’t sound TOO demanding…” But then I attend orientation and after listening to all that the job entails, the videos about the process of loving and caring for these young ladies, and the success stories, I’m just worried if whether or not I’m the right person for this job. I want to be. I’ll try my best to be. And that’s all I can do … Right? Yes!
Happy Friday! <3
