Hi Princess. It is so nice to visit you again. All you need is to believe in yourself and stay determined. You will pass your drivers test and many more tests in your lifetime. I believe in YOU!

Maybe by now you have passed that test...
in which case this is obsolete... but if not, here is my hopefully supportive suggestion:
Go as slow as you need to... What anyone else thinks doesn't matter as much as you doing what you need to do, to stay grounded and centered.
I am thinking, by the way, that you meant silly comments by people around you, who don't appreciate how you feel. That the word 'comments' suggested the 'comments' you get here, was a confusion for some who read what you wrote. I know how much you value your friends and connections here.

{ Apparently you give yourself a comment. I agree with Sumphony. No matter what your determination’s great. That’s the good of your past experience, taking the tests. You’ll do it. Who cares about other peoples’ evaluation of the time frame? I hope that it's not a silly question. A life’s time enough to fulfill your goals. Yes focus. You’ll do everything on the test love.

wow, you have so many comments for someone who doesnt care for
silly comments. Seems like you have lots of blogiters that love you enough to support you no matter what. I especially love that big red sign you have right smack in the middle of all them comments.
The biggest and most accomplished humans in history have always been those who have failed and tried again and again until they not only succeded, they succeded big time.
nobody has ever accomplished anything without overcoming failures, over and over again.
Einstein for example, failed at least a couple of thousand times, but never gave up until he foiund what he was looking for.
In short: you are in great company and I am looking forward to your accomplishments.
As for your stress: in my opinion, that is the cause of all your problems, NOTHING ELSE.

Never let fear get in your way. You are a brave, strong woman who has faced much bigger obstacles than this.

Prayed for you. I failed once and never tried again. Well done for not giving up.
I was told it would be easier if I just did the test for an automatic only. I did consider it but I just decided it was all too much bother. But I know others find it easier to just get the licence to drive an automatic but that does mean you can only drive an automatic car not a manual drive. If I ever considered taking up learning to drive again I would do that I think, but that's just me. Well done.

I think it would be wonderful if you could visualize your mother in the vehicle and not the person who is grading the driving! Put yourself in a good place! Like you said you can drive, now it's time to show everyone who is in charge of making the determination to see that you can! Visualize how great you are going to feel once this driving test is behind you! Now, get ready to celebrate having your license! I know you can do this because you are already doing it! Make yourself proud! Tomorrow is you day and don't be denied! sam

It isn't a fail, just a temporary set back...I have to go for my
Canadian test soon...I am amazingly terrified at the thought...so I am praying for your trial by drive.

Positive thoughts: You can do this. Failure is only temporary, and the good news is, it is not fatal. So put it in it's box and wrap it up and stuff it under a pile of rubbish, to be given to some non-friend somewhere down the road as a second hand, white elephant gift. It is not yours to keep any longer. What you need is available to you, and will occur. It's yours for the taking. Go get it!

I used to drive in London
when we lived there and my sister learned to drive there. It does require a different kind of driving style i.e. go for it or be got but if you can drive there you will be able to drive anywhere and I'm sure you will. Keep that foot down on the pedal

And just remember the person testing you is well, just a person...Make a note of key things they ask you to do and think about each of those things methodically
Love from me.

Darling lady I am going to pray for you to calm down in your heart and head. You have achieved so much in life, now just let peace come into your life you can do anything because you have already done the impossible. Now is the time to be concerned for Symphony over and above anything, just rest and know how good and powerful you are in any circumstance. Sweet lady much love and prayers are coming your way.

At times when something gets me really nervous I try to stop and ask myself what I am afraid of. In this case failure has already happened, so maybe you have some buried worries about being allowed (and expected) to drive without somebody with you?
Don't take my questions to heart if I am way off base, it's just another perspective to think about.

Hi Symphony!
Listen to me, okay? You WILL pass this test! God has faith in you, so just have a bit more faith in yourself. Don't go into the test assuming the worst, but rather the best. You already know you're a good driver, so just stay positive and stay focused on that fact. You WILL do this. I know you will!
I'm saying prayers for you and wishing you all the very best. Please keep us updated, won't you?
Much love...

Under scrutiny, for any reason, I get stressed. I don't know why. I failed my first drivers test by going through a red light. I was so nervous that I didn't even see it. Of course I cried. I wouldn't try again for three months, but then I did all right and passed. That was a long time ago. Since then I have been driving for 55 years, but if I had to take a test today, I would get just as stressed as I did way back then.
