i am not perfect. i tend to like that about myself. it makes me human. i do smile a lot. it occasionally gets me in trouble. i say things that are not always appropiate. sometimes, i even hurt the people i care about the most without meaning to. i have the weirdest but most understanding family in the whole world. my life is constantly changing. every so often, i think it might be slipping away. but i have faith. that's why i keep smiling. as i acknowledge the world i am surrounded by, i have found myself growing spiritually in the most beautiful of ways. i have learned to appreciate. to love. to laugh about the simplest things. to cry when i have to. to stand tall and be proud of who i am today. because now is my turn to strike back at the world that has made me the way i am and show the people living in it what they have been missing.
