Create Your Own Luck!
Life doesn't just happen. I believe that we co-create our reality. That being said, then what you think becomes what you believe which creates your reality. Your homework assignment is to think about what you want. OK, so you want to be happy, but what does that mean to you? What would make you happy? Be specific. If you could have a dream come true what would it be? To win the lottery, ok, so what would you do if you won the lottery that you can't do now? Make that happen. Wish for that instead of the lottery. Then, every day think of that thought, and keep thinking until it becomes part of your reality. Yes, it will feel super cheesy at first and you won't like the process, but keep going. If it helps take a picture and post it somewhere you will see every day.
My students deal with issues you and I can't even imagine. Homelessness, abuse, abandonment, drug/alcohol abuse, poverty, the list goes on and on. How do you rise above? How do you make your dreams come true when negativity surrounds you? You believe it. Here are three amazing young people that will make it. They will overcome the cheesy-ness of looking at their picture every day and it will become their life line.

You are awesome. I can't even imagine anybody else that inspires, teaches and respects those kids like you do. I can't wait to see how you are going to do the same, even though its a totally different situation, in Myanmar.
