Surviving The Torture Room


Sometimes school feels like drawn-out torture. But then I realize, it's a test of character. Am I going to face-up to it and take on the challenge? Or am I going to let it reduce me to a sodden pile of emotions? Something to think about.

(Yes, it is melodramatic of me to call school a Torture Room. I truly am thankful for the opportunity to get an education.)

I'm linking to some great stuff I've read lately:

Fifteen - Vicki
Surrender - Chels

I want to learn to rise to a challenge. When I struggle on, I show the Strength that is not from within me.
