Encouragement: The Gift Opener (From Writer's Whirlpool) In high school, I was terrified of taking an English class from one particular teacher. I heard she was hard from student informants. I doubted my ability to comprehend and keep up with the concepts, the teacher and the really smart students. I tried to get out of it but couldn’t. I planned to do the minimum until I learned we had to write something everyday in a journal, let her read it, criticize it and grade it. Me? Write daily about something personal and let someone more knowing than me read it? I feared not graduating more than I feared not being good enough. I rambled through the routine, wrote whatever and gambled with true feelings. In return, I received praise, encouragement, silence, gentle guidance and freedom to write my thoughts my way. Needless to say, writing then has helped writing now because that journal assignment was much more than an English lesson. It has helped shape my acceptance of this and other gifts as the purest form of praise to the Great Giver of Gifts. It opened my confidence, self view and worldview just enough. I learned another method to understand and communicate with myself and others. Encouragement in any form is a gift opener. We do angelic things when we consider the needs of others.

Eloquence screams poeticly, Be an individual! Be an original!It's time to stop believing our individuality and originality don't matter.
What we succeed at or succumb to individually, affects the momentum and magnificence of the world.
