According to dictionary.com perseverance is a “steady persistence in a course of action, a purpose, a state, etc., especially in spite of difficulties, obstacles, or discouragement.”
I have decided that perseverance is going to be my motto for the next couple of weeks. I have four projects due next week, one on Tuesday and three on Wednesday. I have a test to take on Wednesday and a final on Saturday.
Needless to say I am going to be getting very little sleep for the next several days and will probably stay at the library till 2AM on both Monday and Tuesday.
I would be more frustrated with myself if I had been wasting time on these projects, but I haven’t had any time to do them. I actually went home earlier than I wanted Friday night because I was physically ill as a result of the intensity and aggression with which I was going after all of my studies.
However, through all of these pressures I have been blessed with a sense of inner peace and patience as I am nearing the finish line of the semester. Oh how glorious will be the rest that comes after the semester ends…that is until spring semester starts.
