After many tears, I was able to muster enough courage to give it one more try. I slowly became comfortable with the car and started to look forward to test driving it during the wee hours of the morning. As my confidence increased, I felt the need to continuously challenge myself and began to drive it everyday to the subway station. If I didn't have to exercise my faith, I wouldn't have known that I could conquer anything. If I hadn't had the courage to overcome my fears I wouldn't have experienced the sweet taste of success.
Life is filled with numerous hardships and challenges.
None of us are exempt from personal hurdles and adversity but we have to develop some courage and faith to believe in something more magnanimous that ourselves. If we keep our faith, we won't lose our grounding when the storms of life come. No one on the East Coast could control nor cease Tropical Storm Floyd last week. Floyd would hit a particular area for a few hours and then move on. And while observing the storm and watching countless news reports, I found another spiritual message.
