The cards we're dealt

Well folks, there are some things we cannot change... as one wise therapist advises - "some things are just our legacy... we cannot come from different parents and we cannot come from a different country or social standing". SO!! What does this mean? ... it means, we really are entitled to cut ourselves some slack;) If we came into this world behind the eight ball, we're going to have a tougher time with the American dream, right? If we were not given all of the advantages that money can buy, we likely had to work through high school and/or University - which makes it harder to get good grades and a potential scholarship. The dice are loaded, so we can only do the best we can do. It doesn't mean we can't or shouldn't try like hell and be better prepared and more creative than the "privileged" and/or lovingly supported... but it means if we don't accomplish what we set out to accomplish and in the time frame we hoped... well, you know what, we're probably still doing great considering our beginnings. I wish us much strength to keep going and much success against all odds... above all, I wish us joy and laughs along the way... :) Hugs. xo
