Dedication

I dedicate this journal to my brothers Avery Kannatt, Bryan Kannatt, Canaan Kannatt, and my sister Loriana Stratton. May you all read this journal and be encouraged and know that the sky is truly the limit. You all are beautiful and mean the world to me. This is a huge accomplishment for me. Additionally, this has been a dream come true as I would like for my future child (ren) to see what mommy has done. Therefore, by the will of God, I would like to also dedicate this journal to my future husband and child (ren) to come.

I love you!

Loriea Kannatt

I believe that she loves what she does and she is truly serving in her purpose. Therefore, I grew encouraged to fulfill my passion and one of my purposes in life. I continued to write long after my coaching session had ended. I then believed that my lessons that I had learned may possibly help or encourage someone else. Therefore I decided to pay it forward.

Prayer for reader:

I pray as you read these very personal and deep journals that you are encouraged. I hope you will learn to be grateful in any circumstance that is placed before you. You will grow to know you for whom you are and to love yourself unconditionally as God loves you. May you grow closer to the Lord and follow His guidance to fulfill the purpose He has planned for you.
In Jesus Name,
Amen …show more content…

I woke up early for work excited because I knew at the end of the night I would be having dinner with my female cousins for a birthday celebration. Since I started taking mass transit, I would not have to think about traffic later that evening. I could enjoy a relaxing commute. So I had eaten breakfast and relaxed a little before heading to work. I lost track of time and I had to rush to my car so I can make my train. However, I ended up missing my train and had to drive to work. Driving to work also meant I would have to pay for parking and tolls on my way home. When I arrived to work, I was bombarded with e-mails and I felt like I could not get caught up. I was so disappointed in myself, but so proud to say I remained calm and did not verbally beat myself up like I had done in the past. By the time I made it to the restaurant that evening everyone was just about to eat and surprisingly I did not have to valet. I got to park right in front and I only paid for half of my

All of the effort I had put into the past three months at work are now diminished by my one ignorant action of not calling and lying when I arrived. I could have simplified the situation by just calling in when I knew I would be late and come clean up front, instead, I blew the whole situation out of proportion and tried to make myself seem like a victim. I have lost the trust of my peers and superiors that were involved.

    Let the stream begin. Some body, some things, life and me, communicated the idea to talk now, not to leave it, to stay, and face up to the past, the places, the people, the pain, the many reasons why I left my home and family, all those years ago, to become a drug addict, an alcoholic, a wanderer, move nomadically from house to house, year to year, to live inside a prison, real and imaginary. I met hell. I met the devil. I met them both inside my head. I found out the hard way that humans could easily imagine evil. The path forward comes from the push to write and to deal. Yes, I felt happy in between the miserable spaces. My family helped me to survive and still do now, even more so than before. Without them, I would not exist, for in the darkest moments I realised that they kept me breathing. I want the virtual picket fence, ideal partner, children and career. They may or may not eventuate. Now as I regroup, look upon me with sober, straight and clear eyes, I can have anything. I walk to a lake, to sense nature, to allow the anxiety to live on these pages, to take shape, and mould into a form that speaks atonement.

  • When It Rains, It Pours

    I was very excited to make a new step in my life, college. I came with high hopes and aspirations. My hometown is not near Arizona, It is Lake Tahoe, Nevada, so going home for the weekend was simply out of the question. I had a great time for the first month, enjoying freedom. However, I was sitting in my room one night writing a paper with my roommate, and one of my friends from home called me. She said that one of our good friends from high school had just committed suicide earlier that day. I didn’t know how to react to this; I was scared, and confused. Why did he do it? Why didn’t anyone know that he was unhappy? Was he unhappy? I felt regret, thinking I should have been there for him. Once the crying commenced, my mother called me telling me that my last grandma had gone into the hospital. She had collapsed in her apartment and was rushed to the emergency center. I had no idea what to do. I felt like God was just condemning me and attacking me for some reason. I went into this deep depression and I didn’t want anyone to talk to me, if they did, I would simply start crying. I was alone, and no one knew who I was. I was too far away from home to go to my friend’s ceremony.

  • Personal Narrative: How Divorce Changed My Life

    At the young age of ten, I was faced with a situation that has had one of the largest influences in who I am today. My parents’ divorce has and still currently plays a role in my life that has affected my drive for motivation bringing diverse perspectives. At such a young age, I was filled with such remorse, discouragement, and fear. My educational abilities were collapsing, along with some of my common social activities. I was absent-minded due to my adolescent understanding and confusion of the situation. I became emotionally depleted coming eye to eye with what I was promised would never happen. My personal connections with my family gradually became diminished, from what I kept so valuable. I was placed in a situation that tore apart my contentment, arrogance, and self motivation. It wasn’t until years later, I took my position as a chance to transform my bleakness into a strong desire for greatness.

  • The Birth Of My New Brother

    830 Words  | 2 Pages

    Up until March 5th of 2009, I had been an only child. Many big changes occurred in my life the year prior to the birth of my new brother. My mom became remarried, we moved to a bigger house down the same street, and there was talk of a new baby in the future. The remarriage was a small celebration held at a quaint location on a chilly fall night, a night you would rather be snuggled up on the couch with warm, fuzzy blankets drinking from a mug of hot cocoa. The move was a breeze, as I can just about see the old house through the tall maple trees from the new. I carried whatever I could back and forth, running quickly back down the street to grab more. The excitement of a new house chasing me to and from. Lastly, the talk of a sibling. I wasn’t sure what to think. The thought of a sister excited me, but a brother not so much. I wanted to share my dolls and dress up, not have to play with mud and trucks. Despite my wants, I had a feeling it was going to be a boy. The day of the ultrasound, I made a bet with my step-dad the baby would be a boy. After, I was a dollar richer and a sister of a brother to be. Having to wait a few more months to meet the little guy would be torture, as the anticipation was killing me slowly. I may not have been ready for the changes made and the ones to come, but I took them like a champ.

I told her I that I always focus on finding absolute answers to everything I come in contact with. By the end of our conversation, she realized that her amount of hope amazed me the most. I marveled at her optimism and how she readily waited for something positive to happen out of everything. She always stayed alert for whatever was going to come her way. The belief that God provided aid to promote her success,
