At Tea Talk we briefly share how we are feeling and what we are thinking. Visit Ruth @ Celebrate Friendship for more
I’m having
my usual iced lemon tea in a not-so-usual long, slender glass. It’s a commercial drink today, well, like most of the drinks that appear on my Tea Talk posts. This one’s an order from a restaurant at Thaniya Plaza where I browse golf equipment.
I’m feeling dazed but optimistic. My son’s second clinical impression is PDD (pervasive developmental disorder). I was on the phone with his psychologist and occupational therapist discussing sessions. A massive homework lies in front of me.
On my mind is predictably my son. While my decision is to tackle his developmental issues, I have not forgotten all the fun things he and I are going to do. The rewards I am going to give him for every little success he makes are already crowding my mind. I leave the therapy to the specialists. Thank goodness they exist.
Are you familiar with Charles Schwab? I’m not. I have never heard of him until a few minutes ago when I looked around for something to inspire me in the midst of this challenge I am in right now.
A quick fact: Charles Schwab is the chairman and founder of Charles Schwab Corporation, a brokerage and banking company. That’s SUCCESS written all over but before all that, he failed remedial English due to a learning disability. Looking at him now I think there is credibility in what he says:
“Passion is the great slayer of adversity. Focus on strengths and what you enjoy.”
