I have literally survived having my head smash to the floor after playing with a rocking chair as a kid; having a stone thrown at my back by school thug;  being run over, among others. What´s next? I hope nothing. Was I a trouble-maker? No. I think I just was at wrong place at the wrong time. Also, I did the wrong things at the wrong time. Anyhow, why did I bring this up? Well, because I find it amazing that after all I've been through, I still remain positive. Moreover, I guess something divine saved my neck on those many occasions. I may not be sure about my aforesaid statement. Though what I am sure about is this: I have slogged my guts out to be where I am now.  No longer do I defer making decisions that are going to make me a better person. I mean, I used overthink stuff. For instance, back as a child, I would malinger not to take a test at school. Why?, because obviously I had not studied. No though, many years later, I try to attend my classes no matter what. Have I learned not only to limber up for a race, but also for life. Besides, since I  almost am a certified educator, I need to be versatile individual. For example, I suck at handcrafts, and am looking for ways to get better at it. Ergo, you could say I am progressing. Have I realized that I was wasting my time wrangling with my folks about my past. Further, I have learned to embraced all the thins have or have not done. Thereby, I would not bridle at any stupid comment someone were to do to annoy me. Many fear to take the first step before doing anything hard. Be that as it may, one you've done it the rest of the way is not as rough.  That's why instead of probing into my own past, I decided to do something different. Should I slug it out with my alter ego to see who takes over? Yes, getting rid of the negative parts of oneself is crucial to succeed in life.
