Thomas decided to become a Paramedic, and that means hitting the books. How has he done, you ask? Splendidly, thank you very much!! I am proud to reveal that he got a 96 on his midterm, which is in line with the grades he has received throughout the course. What quality does he possess that has enabled him to do that which does not come naturally to him?
The answer is commitment.
Here's how dictionary.com defines it:
com⋅mit⋅ment
–noun
mənt
| 1. | the act of committing. |
| 2. | the state of being committed. |
| 3. | the act of committing, pledging, or engaging oneself. |
| 4. | a pledge or promise; obligation: We have made a commitment to pay our bills on time. |
| |
Here's what Scripture says:
Simply let your 'Yes' be 'Yes,' and your 'No,' 'No'; anything beyond this comes from the evil one. Matthew 5:37
Thomas made up his mind to do something and he has plowed ahead despite the fact that doing so has involved tasks that he does not like to do. This has been inspiring to me, perhaps it will do the same for you.
be safe,

Thanks dad. That commitment has stemmed from the desire of getting to where you are right now. The same commitment runs through your blood as well.
3 months down... 8 more to go!!

While mom and dad are the proudest of their son, I claim the next place in the line. You may have had apprehensions about your ability to get thorough this process, there was no doubt in my mind that success was a sure thing.
Great job on the test. It is yet another proof of your talent.
Eight months will go faster than you might think...
BFH aka. The B.E.
Bravo, Thomas! May the next eight months pass by quickly and as painlessly as possible. :)
Wow that's great! :-) have fun doing the next 8 months.
