Tha DEFinition
Friends are.... there to tell you the truth, even when you don't want to hear it.
Men are like... shoes, the good ones will last forever.
Women are like... coffee, you never know how strong she is until she gets into hot water.
Emotions are... not toys. If you play with them over time, they will become broken.
A soulmate is... the other half of a person's being to make their life complete.
Infatuation is... a fantasy of your imagination.
Real love is... unconditional. (A simple sentence but hard to achieve by some people)
On that Philosophical Ish...
You playing yourself if you think...... you can have your cake and eat it too. Life will NEVER present that opportunity. If it did, life would be perfect because we'll always have what we want and more. And you know that's not true.
Best advice ever gotten: Treat others as you want to be treated.
Worst advice ever gotten: Stay in your comfort zone.
The power of faith is... amazing.
Relationships.... are for those who want to settle down. So why people get in them and know they're not ready?
Life... is about living for Christ, not yourself.
Success... is applying Christ to your actions. A long process but a worthy one.
If you ask me.....
What gets old after a while? Being a playa and living a lie
What never gets old? Being in love
What is your hidden talent? Sewing and designing
What would you do over again? Nothing. Everything happens for a reason.
Where would you like to visit? Dominican Republic, Brazil, Spain, and Italy
What language would you learn to speak? Spanish (getting better at it) & French
