Fall and Get Back Up

Today started off horrid. My lunch date cancelled and when I went to the book store they wouldn't let me purchase adobe premium because I don't have a student ID. So then they wouldn't validate my parking which lead me to speed walking through the parking lot. I tripped and fell. My phone flew across and I cut my hand. How the man who helped me didn't laugh is beyond my comprehension. I can't imagine holding that in. Then I still had to pay for parking. This is suppose to be what I'm grateful for so let me get to that. I'm grateful that after I went and saw my niece and she made me smile when I walked in and she yells "Coco!" This three year-old knows how to make me happy. I sit by her and she puts her blanket on me and says "here's some covers Coco." I'm grateful for her happy disposition. I'm grateful that I now live so close to family. I'm grateful I didn't tear my jeans. I'm grateful that I love school and that I'm a woman who will be able to break the cycle of my family and get an education. That I can break the cycle of poverty I was raised with.
