When you're waiting for what you want, it feels like forever

About Me

I love to smile, smiling is contagious. I love to sing. If you ever see me driving around I am singing at the top of my lungs, more than likely to country, that's right, I said country!! I live with my best friend in Fair Oaks and then moving back out to Auburn in a few months. I am going to school to become a paramedic because I want to save lives and I love it. I love being outdoors such as camping, wakeboarding, or even just going for a walk. I go to church every sunday and I love it so much. It's amazing how much greater the Lord can make your life. It makes one realize their true self and who you really are. Lately I've been thinking a lot about my life and with God present in it on a daily basis I see how great of a person I am becoming. I am truly happy. You have to keep on pressing on no matter what... have a positive attitude about life, because life is all about choices. Life is not easy nor do I have it all figured out, but I do know who I am, what I stand for, and what I desire to become...I know I will never be perfect. There will always be struggles in my life and mistakes will be made, but that does not keep me from pressing forward in my walk of this Life...We have to forget the past, move on, learn from our mistakes, and look forward to what lies ahead of us. I believe in true love. I believe God has a plan for each and every one of us, and if God's plan is perfect, then whatever follows is perfect, even though it may not be totally apparent at first. There is someone for everyone..We just don't know when or where you will meet this person. Everything you do or anyone you meet isn't just a coincidence..there is a reason for everything. I don't want meaningless relationships. I finally got my priorities straight, and am working on getting my life together...I am challenged daily...I know what I desire in friendships, relationships, family, and career. I don't want to spend any more time in my life wasted on worthless, temporary things. I want to live life to the fullest...living for others and making changes, this is my desire. "Live from your heart, and never be wishy washy about your character. Be strong, be who you are, and always be open and genuine to everyone. 'Worry about today, for tomorrow has worries of its own'... seek God and ask what you should do next, and where you should go...for if you are trying to run this life on your own, if you are always in search of a boy or love, you will NEVER find it...work on being the real you; the way you speak, the way you treat people, the way you act. Focus on being someone NOT of power and image and popularity, but rather someone of dignity, character, and strength. Be you, live from your loving and gentle heart, and simply BE the best..have a purpose, don't get caught up in all the crap...be real, open, and honest. Be you, and the GOOD WILL COME ALONG. *People will enter your life, opportunities will arise*, REAL relationships will be made. Drop everything and get going... THIS IS WHAT LIFE IS ABOUT..." --
