I am saying this post as I feel it!
Last week was rough, completing my analysis reports for my research dissertation! I knew after my birthday I would have to dive in, but baaaaaaby not like this. I have cried damn near every day for the past week. This is a different type of pain! At times, I could literally feel my brain stretching and then becoming overstimulated! I had to lean on the world to send encouraging words because baaaaaby, I wanted to throw the whole laptop several times. I am sure my mind said, “F**k this Earned Doctorate, I just want my life back,” several times while doing the statistical analysis portion. But the research means too much, and I already told God yes!
Fast-forward: Y’all words and prayers carried! Because I am back in the game! I completed and submitted my rough draft analysis report, y’all!!! 🥹
Thank you to everyone who sent encouraging words and prayed in silence. A lot of the time, when the strong cry out, the whispers go quiet!!!
But y’all held ya girl up! I appreciate it!
Moral of the story: Save the m**o date, May 15th. Let’s do these last few laps so we can go collect this Doctorate! 🫶🏾💪🏾💪🏾 I love y’all!
