Waking up...

People ask me why I moved six hundred miles away from home right after I turned eighteen. People ask me why I work such crazy hours. I moved because I have a sense of adventure. I work crazy hours because the kid that I nanny brightens my day. He's two and has opened my eyes so much to the beauty in the world. Everyone has something they get out of bed for every day. What's your reason?

Sometimes I wish I would not be able to wake up in the morning especially when I am depressed with things in my life. Now, even it's for hard to wake up early in the morning for my early shift to go to work, I have to because I know somebody needs me there and it's worthwhile when I can make them smile. Sometimes when I am not going to work I still need to wake up because I know I need to just for my loved ones.

That's sad to hear. I'm sorry to hear you're depressed. It's good to know that you still pull yourself out of bed even when you feel that there's no reason.

I get up of bed everyday because I know I have a purpose. Each day, I know my presence would make a difference in the lives of the people I meet. Also, I know that each day, as I meet the same or new people, I learn a lot of things.
