Solutions

Sometimes I know how to solve my problems, but I don't do anything about it. I have gone two months knowing exactly how to solve my time issues and my lack of sleep, but I didn't want to do anything about it because it meant that I could potentially be hurting other people, especially people really important to me.

It wasn't until my mother told me to do it that I actually did it. She sent me a text message at 4:11am Friday. She told me to quit my job because I needed to study. She even said she would help me financially so that i wouldn't have to worry about about money.

So, I obeyed my mother and quit my job that day. Now, I have midterms this week and a few extra hours to study for them each day.

I didn't go to work Saturday, and it was strange to have so much time. For the first time in four years, I am unemployed.

And so, my father and I sat at the dinning room table and went through 130 Hebrew flash cards all Saturday afternoon.

I am so thankful for my family and for the blessing I have to rely on them as I finish my last, and most difficult, semester of my college life.
