“A family in harmony will prosper in everything.” – Chinese proverb
With all the stress and difficult challenges I have been facing this semester, I am eternally grateful for the support I have received from my family. Anytime I have a doubt about my life decisions or can no longer believe in myself, my parents and my sister are always there for me. Somehow, they can see the goodness and strength in me that I keep losing.
They say you are who you hang out with. I take that one step further. You are who you love the most. And if I can be anything like the people I love the most – if I can be anything like my family – I believe I can make it through anything.
Every once in a while I miss my family so much that I just want to go back home and stay there for days. But then I remember that I have a wonderful McConnell family that supports me too.
