STRUGGLES

Striving to be the best wife, mother, daughter, friend, economist, and teacher that I can be, knowing that

I will fail, and learn, and fail and learn, each day.

Striving to be more thankful and merciful. I often hold a grudge when I should either be grateful (for

the lesson) or forgive.

Striving to let go. I hold on to tasks as my own; am unable to delegate; think that my way is best; need

to be open to new ideas/ways/approaches.

Striving to be a better listener. I want to listen well; I need to be slow to speak.
