Learn from yesterday, Live for today, Hope for tomorrow

About Me

Most importantly...Faith keeps me strong!!! Everything else just falls into place. Never judge a book by its cover, you'd be suprised!!! I've been told I look mean, it's not intentional. I'm shy until I'm comfortable. I'm a diamond in the rough. I live without regret so I TRY to make the best decisions possible, I learn a lesson from every mistake I date.... oops I meant MAKE. HA! I've learned to let go of the past and look to the future cuz that's where I'll be spending the rest of my life. I'm fortunate to know what real love feels like. I've had to fall to learn that life continues & you must get back up and move forward. My past molded who I am today. I don't allow myself to dwell on the negative in life, my life is what I choose to make it so I try to make every minute count. I don't form judgement and I give everyone the benefit of the doubt until I'm proven wrong. I enjoy the simple things in life. My family & my friends are my rock. I'm blessed to have amazing people I surround myself with, my love is unconditional to people who deserve it. I'm genuine & you'll never have to question where my mind is at & I'm not shy with my words so you'll always know where you stand. I'd give the shirt off my back to someone in need but my kindness should never be mistaken for weakness. I love giving and helping other people live their dream. There's nothing I enjoy more than laughter or a real smile on someone's face that in some way I contributed to. I love being spontaneous but my responsible side can’t help but to be organized. I’m a girly girl and tom-girl wrapped up in one package. I'm crazy & random but also mellow and shy. I am comfortable with who I am so I don’t ask for approval or apologize for my behavior...I am me…you can choose to love me or hate me, the choice is left completely up to you… One of the first steps toward doing better today is accepting that you have a choice in every decision you make in life. Understand that any bad Karma you create will be by your own doing. We tend to blame other people, or conditions we live in, for our negative acts. But that's bullshit. No matter where you live, no matter what people are saying or doing around you, you still can make the right choice every time. There's never only one way to react to a situation. ~ Russel Simmons
