About Me

when u see me in my destiny, then you'll understand me in my present. anyone who knows me knows how iNtEnse and foCused i tend to be. if you don't know me, you will likely be offended by this very thing. i loVe you, but not sold on pleAsiNg you. i am too careless of a human being to know exactly what to do with me. i need God. i am young – yes - but i've lived lOng and haRd eNouGh to know that i'm FaTalLy abAndoNed without the souRce for liFe. i fail in eveRytHinG without Him. i've either lived deeply insEcuRe or viCtoRiouSly confident. i've been an addict, a 'good girl', a thief, a sOngBird and a jAilbiRd, a complicated and sophisticated aRtiSt and both soCially thRiVing and staRved – today i could be any number of these things. on every stage of LifE i've had to turn to God for clarity, wiSDoM, pEaCe, stReNGth or to siMpLy be reminded that i'm GenUiNely liKed by someone. every attempt of trying this thing (liFe) on my own has ended in failure. there’s nothing more lonesome than emotional and spiritual poverty – the same can be true for proSpeRitY. i’ve sought and continue seeking to find that which is gOOd and will laSt. as for worthless things? well, i StrUggle to not be taken away or deFined by them. nothing has been as PreCiouS and sWeet as what i've found in Him who alone is mY pEaCe. if you know me, you know what i’ve just written represents a poRtioN of who i am. unless we look beyond what sEPaRates us…we will never know what coNnects us. it’s in the melancholic aftermath of liFe that people uNite. in actual fact, i am... just like you.
