For those of you who do not know, recently I began a position with a Fire Rescue where I live. No, I am not going to be a firefighter, nor would I ever have the courage to do what that job needs. Though, in the last week, I have had my eyes open to so many new things, including a way of life that is absolutely admirable and inspiring.
I knew when I accepted the position, that I would learn more things that I ever thought possible. What I didn't know was that it would be in the very first week. This week has been one of a challenge. I have found that my fears tend to control my life and that somehow I need to break through them.
For many years, I have also learned to trust myself and very few other people around me. For me, it was just easier not to be hurt by others that I let into my life, not accepting that they could have my back. I will say that throughout this week the most important thing that I have learned, is that with the right people behind you - you can accomplish the things you never thought possible...a huge lightbulb moment.
I cannot even begin to express how excited I am to begin this journey. I pray that if it is meant to be, that this will be where I will stay for the rest of my career.
Thank you to those who pushed me, encouraged me, and stood behind me, I look forward to representing YOU.
