About Me

Living life and loving it. Every beat, every breath. Life is way too short to be fake, pretend anything and deal with bullshit. My family is my world - never loved anyone like I do them, that's true. I have goals - some pretty high, some more within reach and I strive to meet these goals.I value different perspectives. I love learning new things. I'm not too conventional or traditional and believe in making my own traditions. I'm very active and am usually on the go. I love exploring and trying new things. I base my relationships on true character. It's all about the texture of things with me....
