I'm living my life for a purpose and not letting it pass me by. Every mistake I make comes with a lesson. You may think that smoking, drinking, and drugs are cool but no thankyou, I dont want them in my body. I dont need someone to take care of me, I have myself for that. I'm a lot more than I used to give myself credit for, I see that now and I've challenged myself to step away from the people who dont. I have more than my fair share of blonde moments, but I dont let them define me. I've been through the struggles of life and know there are many more to come. Trust me when I say there is no greater love than God. He has worked through my life in so many ways. I'm not perfect and I dont want to be. I havent lowered my expectations in life, I've just learned to broaden my horizons. I'm learning to get back up after I fall, and the true meaning of not giving up. It's my personal goal to be a friend to everyone I meet, but dont take advantage of my good nature. I'm where I am today because of the places I have been in the past. Sometimes the easy road isn't the one your meant to take, and I accept that, I'm still finding myself in the midst of everything else going on. I want to prove to people that having fun doesnt have to include poison. I want to help the underprivelged and I love my job of teaching kids taekwondo and swimming. I think if we all stopped caring only about ourselves and actually thought of others a lot of our problems would magically disappear, try it sometime.
