... a vet!!! Yes, a vet. It wasnt until in year 8 when I was about 13 or 14, someone told me that you had to be in the top 5% to get into uni to be a vet. My dream was dashed, crushed, burnt and up in smoke. Why did I believe them, they may have been right but I didnt even investigate the statement.
The Kim of today would have said, "well, I'm going to check that out!!!" The other thing that is sad is that I didnt believe in myself... I didnt believe that I could apply myself and get there! Now that is sad.
It has taken me 20 years to learn to believe in myself. I had to go through many relationship break ups, an abusive marriage, a difficult up brining and the loss of a child to find myself, to believe in myself... to know myself! I still have such a long way to go... but Im getting there! I graduate at the end of the year. I will be a teacher! Not just a teacher, a woman who will inspire young people to never stop dreaming! To never stop believing in themselves. To never give up!

An inspiration.. I do yogic breathing with my students.. Hopefully when they grow up they will already know the meaning and value of relaxing for healing your life.
I completely agree...Always believe in yourself!! Never give up!
Great entry. You can still go back and become a vet. Good luck in finishing your teaching degree.
