My Thoughts About Life

The work that needs to be done in my life is actually a lot of things; depending on the day would be a lot of things jumbled together. These things have an effect on me by helping me take control and responsibilities on everything I need to get done within my life. It’s hard at times to be able to step up and help take care of things outside of my own life because if it comes to money, that’s something that I do not have, so if I have to pay for something out of pocket I have to ask a friend or a parent which makes me feel bad because I’m not able to help myself to my own money when I don’t have any. Then when it comes to my more everyday things outside of my own life, it ends up with watching kids and cleaning but these things make me a better person and a leader for I have to keep up with the kids that look up to me for advice or even someone to be there for them, the cleaning helps me relax and be a more independent person. Most independent people are better leaders because we have more senses of trusting that we will make the right decision on things opposed to having to rely on other people to make those decisions for us, no matter the decision be right or wrong. It is always better to do it by ourselves at times, and then whenever we need help we can ask for it. Sometimes though whenever we ask for help with standing up to someone or something we can’t always get it, so instead of trying to follow someone into “the fire” (being any situation), why not be a leader, and walk ourselves into it, without any worries or anything stopping us. Sometimes it is hard for us to be a leader but when it comes down to it most of the time everyone can have those special leadership skills that no one other than themselves can have. When being a leader it is tough for people to look up to you for advice which you might not have sometimes, so it’s hard for everyone or even anyone to step up to the plate and go for it. Especially at times when you have no clue what you even doing so it makes you a deer caught in headlights, but with those mistakes we as people learn to take on small responsibilities at a time and gradually get better at being a better person and a better leader. Opposed to just jumping out in the middle of everything all at once and being trapped like a bear in a bear-trap. This makes things harder for you to sometimes understand. So whenever it comes to my everyday things that I do, they make me a better leader because I know how to take on a lot of responsibility and it’s sometimes hard and I feel trapped, but I concore it and makes me a better leader and a better person to look up to in the end.

  1. Natasha, I feel like some of the things you consider your duties are things all people struggle with. I know I also feel bad when borrowing money from people. It's also hard to be a leader. It's a lot of pressure to have people studying your every move, and definitely makes you feel on-edge. However, I think you'll do fine in life :)

  2. Natasha,

    I feel like you have really opened yourself up during this blog assignment and I hope it has become a place for you to express your feelings. You have been through so much more than the average senior in high school. I could not ever imagine living a day without my mom but you have been so courageous and kept on smiling and moving on, it seems you always know that your mom is still with you. You should be very proud of where you are today and where you are heading because you have learned so much throughout your life that will make a you a strong worker, mother, and partner. Keep pushing yourself to do all the things that you wish for in life! I especially like how your one person would be Brittany because she is your fiance and she should be the one person that you can trust will always have your back and help you out. I know my call would be Kyle for probably the same reasons you chose Brittany which proves your love is strong. Keep smiling Natasha! I look forward to seeing all the places you go!
