Day One Hundred and Sixteen: Changing Helpless


I am trying hard not be helpless anymore.
Okay, we all know that I’m not really helpless. I’m very independent, I hate asking for help and I’m strong willed. I would rather learn how to do something than ask other people to do it for me. Dry walling, for example. But there are times when I feel really helpless.


Have you ever had one of those days when everything goes wrong and you just want to curl up, cry and call your mom? There are days when I just want someone else to fix my problems for me so that I don’t have to. I just don’t want to be dealing with it. Grad school, for example, was the worst time of my life. I spent pretty much every day feeling like I was lost in a sea of mediocrity and pleasing others.


But I refuse to be helpless anymore. I’ve got my teaching certificate, I have my job and my novel. I’m not helpless anymore.
Take that, grad school hell.
