must have monday

this week's must have monday is going to be a little different than most as it is not a tangible object. we should all have it though. it comes in different forms. it means different things to different people. and at the end of the day, it usually puts most of our minds at ease. this week's must have monday is.....

...hope!!!

and yes, this is all stemming from VCU's win over Kansas yesterday. without hope VCU wouldn't be where they are right now. everyone doubted us. we weren't good enough. we didn't deserve to be part of the big dance. hmmm, i guess they're all rethinking that right now!

i'm a firm believer that with a little hope you can accomplish anything, and the current happenings with VCU proves my point. seeing the rams turn such a negative situation into something positive has really inspired me and challenged me to try and continue to see the positive side of things. because there have definitely been some days recently where it's been VERY hard to see the positive side of things. but once i did, i knew everything would be alright.

it's not always easy, but honestly, when is life ever easy? so starting today, i'm not going to get bogged down with "i can't," "it'll never work" and the "i'm not good enough" mindsets, and i challenge everyone else to do the same! the glass is half full people! :)

ps...thank you to the selection committee for seeing hope in the rams. i think it's safe to say your decision has influenced a nation (well, at least the little nation i like to call myself!!).
