Hello everyone, my name is Petagaye. I am from Jamaica, the land of wood and water. I recently migrated to the United States and I must say it has been wonderful thus far. Yes, I do miss my home country but I personally find American to be a place with a lot of opportunity. It can make you and break.
It all depends on you and what you choose to make of it. If it breaks you, that is on you. Everyone has a choice and to make something of themselves. All can do it. As mentioned above i recently move here for about one month now. Therefore, I am new to Steemit. I am not all that sure how it work but i am willing to learn. I see that a lot of persons has some wonderful post, also educational. Thank you!.
In Jamaica I was an active person. I did Voluntary work, Community work and was also a Youth Board Member at my church. I am the Founder and Leader of 'Fabulous Young Ladies in Christ" which I had started at my Church back home. It focuses on young ladies ages 8 to 22 inside and out of the church.
I found that in a time like this, some of our young ladies are caught up into some things that they might not know which way to turn or what to do (please note, I do understand that it is not just the females but males also). The group I formed is like an avenue that was created to help guide, educate young ladies and even to form their destiny.
Ones destiny can change at any point in time, but at times, all some of us need is someone to hold our hand and show us the way. At least to guide us on a path where we can see the light. I know the feelings, I am still young but I can relate to a lot of teen females and even older females. I have been through a lot, so I have some knowledge. Enough that I can share. I am 23 years of age.
I am not perfect, I learn each day too but i try. My heart goes out to all young people. We all can make something of ourselves. I have spoken to a number of persons that had migrated the the US also and they told me it took them a while to get on their feet. But.. knowing me, I can not stay one place for too long. I am not saying it is easy, still you can try. I just heard about this new way you can make money....aaaaaa I was hesitant at first because i was like, " what if i can not do it?." I do doubt myself a lot.
Well, who cares... "Nothing beats a trial but a failure," we all need to try. That is the only way we will make it. Each failure is away we become stronger and also we even have in mind what to do from what not to do.
PROCRASTINATION is never a good thing. Just act. Just try. Just do it.
By then....
You will know the outcome.
Failing is apart of life and it is apart of growth. There is no man in this world that has never failed. NONE!
BUT I BET THEY WILL SAY, JUST GET UP AND TRY AGAIN.
Do you agree?
