Nerves

What are nerves? My dad says that being nervous just means your ready. I have been told this my entire life so everytime I feel the anxiety creeping up I try to remember that I am prepared. There are some obstacles in life that when it is all said and done I cant prepare anymore. I am currently awaiting the most difficult acceptance in my life thus far. My letter of acceptance into the social work program will be here sometime in August. I have completed all of the requirements for the program so it is just a matter of waiting and hoping that my name finds its way to an open spot. As my dream is to become a social worker and help those around me the rejection of this scares me more than anything in my entire life. So as I wait in anticipation these next few months I can only remember than I am prepared and whatever happens is out of my hands. And I also will remember that I will never give up because sometimes obstacles are placed in front of us to see how much we really want something. So I say bring on the obstacles, I am ready to overcome them!
