@louisbarajas3: Did your mom ever make a whole meal out of a refrigerator you thought was empty? Mine was a whiz at that. I would open the fridge, look around, and say there is nothing to eat. Then she would go into the same kitchen, start putting things together, and somehow make the most delicious meal. Same refrigerator. Same ingredients. But she could see possibilities I could not. I have been thinking about that because sometimes we open the refrigerator of life and do the exact same thing. We look at what we have and say there is nothing here. I do not have enough money. I do not have the right connections. I do not know where to start. Those obstacles can be real. I am not going to pretend a positive attitude pays the bills. But before you decide you have nothing to work with, take another look. What do you know how to do? What have you learned from something difficult you have been through? Who could you ask for guidance? What could you start with what you already have? My mom knew how to put things together. That took practice, creativity, and a lot of care. Maybe the next step in your life begins with learning to see your own ingredients a little differently. You may still need help. You may need to learn something new. But there could be a starting point you have not recognized yet. What could your mom make when everybody else thought there was nothing to eat?
