Wow! I am so excited to be at John F. Kennedy University! I was told for years and years by my father and my ex-husband that I was stupid and not worthy of going to a university. They called my dreams, inspirations, pipe dreams and a waste of time. Frankly, they were the waste of time. What I realize today is that they probably feared me being smarter than them or finding out that theres more to life than there sorry lives. I dont normally have such a negative attitude, but those two men have made MY LIFE hell.
The incredible thing, I believe that too few people find a way out of their own chaos. I can honestly say that I have done everything that I have ever set out to do. So many people, especially the week before starting at JFK, all tried talking me out of going. Satan tried disillusion, disharmony, chaos, striking me financially, he even tried taking away the use of my legs to get there. None of this stopped me, because I have Jesus Christ on my side and a wonderful set of friends that are my support system.
Often times, I suffer from nightmares, but for once I had an enlightening dream. Some of its a blur, but some friends of mine in high school were laughing and having a great time ice skating (could have been roller-skating). The happiness I felt was truly awesome, something that I havent done in a long while. This laughter was from the belly, honest and pure, almost childlike. Then we were at Disneyland and saw my mentor, E. Jones and his wife. Seeing Ernie at Disneyland was a dream comes true for me. I felt like I was radiating happiness.

GOOD FOR YOU HUN SOMETIME WE HAVE TO TELL SATAN TO GET BEHIND US GLAD YOU DIDNT GIVE UP THE DEVIL LOVES TO DEFEAT OUR DREAMS AND HAPPINESS
How wonderful!! You hit the nail on the head about your father and ex - they were just trying to control you, because they knew you were smarter than them and would figure that out one day. Fortunately, you did! Wishing you much success at JFK! Congratulations !
