Reinhold Niebuhr:
Nothing worth doing is completed in our lifetime,
Therefore, we are saved by hope.
Nothing true or beautiful or good makes complete sense in any immediate context of history;
Therefore, we are saved by faith.
Nothing we do, however virtuous, can be accomplished alone.
Therefore, we are saved by love.
No virtuous act is quite a virtuous from the standpoint of our friend or foe as from our own;
Therefore, we are saved by the final form of love which is forgiveness.I will not conform to something that you think I should be. I am one in a million and I deserve to be loved for who I am even all my imperfections. I refuse to be just another girl in a collection. Treat me with respect or watch me walk out the door.
It is NEVER ok to test on Animals!!! I believe that science can progress and still save lives without causing pain and suffering to innocent creatures!!I can't WAIT to graduate so that I can start my time with Doctors without Borders!!!!!.. ..*****While there's promise in loving, there are no guarantees. So live and love. Get hurt and love again. After all, there's no joy without pain and no bliss without hell.******

Antoine de Saint-Exupery*****A Prayer For AnimalsHear our humble prayer, O God, for our friends the animals,
especially for animals who are suffering;
for animals that are overworked, underfed and cruelly treated;
for all wistful creatures in captivity that beat their wings against bars;
for any that are hunted or lost or deserted or frightened or hungry;
for all that must be put death.We entreat for them all Thy mercy and pity,
and for those who deal with them we ask a heart of compassion
and gentle hands and kindly words.
Make us, ourselves, to be true friends to animals,
and so to share the blessings of the merciful.- Albert Schweitzer**" Possess nothing that should belong to others. Respect the property of others but prevent others from enriching themselves from human suffering or the suffering of other beings.Do not mistreat your body. Learn to handle it with respect. Do not look on your body as only and instrument. Preserve vital energies (sexual, breath, spirit) for the realization of the Way. Sexual expression should not happen without love and commitment. In sexual relationships be aware of future suffering that may be caused. To preserve the happiness of others, respect the rights and commitments of others. Be fully aware of the responsibility of bringing new lives into the world. Meditate on the world into which you are bringing new beings.Do not believe that I feel that I follow each and every of these precepts perfectly. I know I fail in many ways. None of us can fully fulfill any of these. However, I must work toward a goal. These are my goal. No words can replace practice, only practice can make the words."******Okay, well to start. This is me...If you don't like it, don't let the door hit you on the ass on the way out. I do not know why some guys feel like it is their God given right to be mean to a woman. Don't compare me to anyone else, I am my own person. While we have all been through our fair share of SHIT in this life, that does not give any one the right to be mean. I deserve to be treated like a person. I am very kind, caring and loving. That is all I ask in return. Anyways, that needed to be said.****** I firmly believe that God gives up crappy relationships so that when we find that ONE special person, we really appreciate them!!! HELLO ALL!!!! I am 28 years old. I am currently a Student at Metro. Some of my goals include; getting my degree in Molecular Biology, studying Virology in the field, winning a Nobel Peace Prize (OF COURSE!!!) opening a clinic in Africa, backpacking across central America, and just enjoying life to the fullest! Someday, if I meet the right guy, I would love to get married just like anyother girl. But, looking at my track record, I don't see that happening. I miss having my best friend around, and hope to find that again someday. I am fun, have a great sense of humor, caring, open, and I really try to have fun no matter what I am doing. My favorite thing to do is laugh, I love just sitting around with my friends, just laughing my butt off :). I am a very busy person, so please don't get offended if it takes me a while to get back to you :) Banana Pancakes and Curious George make me smile!!..

I won't apologize for who I am. Life is too short and the people that matter in my life love me no matter what
