Every now and then I get these urges to update this section and fill you in on who I am. This is because my life always changes, sometimes for the better, and sometimes for the worse.
I am a dreamer who cherishes dreams as special things. I try to be the first one up the mountain, the highest flying eagle in the sky, an inspiration for those that are too afraid or shy, and I try to make the best of every moment. Regardless, the biggest thing is that I try, because if I fail, I get up and try again. If I fail, at least I know that I am not a failure in God’s eyes.
I am also, reconstituted, a good attitude. It is something you have to have to keep going. With that, I am ambitious. I keep working at my goals and maintain a positive attitude in order to achieve them. As Dolly Parton bests states, “You can do anything as long you want as you keep a good attitude and keep working at it, but the second you give up, you’re screwed”.
I am also a prayer. I believe that God always has something in store for me and I have learned to forgive myself for my mistakes and forgive others for theirs. I do not give second chances, I give unlimited chances. I find something special in everyone and everybody is worth knowing. Inside us all is the ability to shine and refine the lives of others. It is my only hope that I have done so for somebody as many have done for me.
I am there as well. When people need me, I can be counted on. I am willing to help and willing to unconditionally love a person. I do not see mistakes when people speak to me, I see people. I see people that have a story to tell and would like me to help write some pages. I know that in life, every page you write is with pen so I try and make the most of the ink I have left to write with. Cliché eh?
I am also a friend who appreciates the friends I have. Michael Ward has always been an inspiration of handwork and perseverance to accomplish dreams. Cara Cubbage has always been a beacon of positive outlooks to refresh a negative mind. Meghann McCoy has always aided me with grammar and reality. Dustin Dedrick has always brought a smile when I needed one. Katie Etter has always had a laugh to change a bad mood; Victoria Hatcher a wise heart to heal a wounded; Holly Norton a side kick that supports, Rebecca Downs a spirit of God’s love reigning on you; Rebecca Polk a listener who always extends her care; Carla Quintrell a smack of faith to remind one to be faithful; Adam Craig a witty humorist to keep me sane; Ms. Kim an ear that hears and a mouth that speaks what you need to hear. . .
So as for the future, I plan to study abroad in Northern Ireland at the University of Ulster’s Magee Campus. I believe it will be an enriching experience and one worth my time. I also plan to work at a Church Camp up in Sharpsburg where I can relax from the from the pressures of the community I live in and borrow ppeace and tranquility from another, while spreading Go'ds word and receiving God's Love. . .
