"God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference."
Countup Timers at WishAFriend.comMy name is Emily. I'm quirky. I'm cheesy. I'm loving. I'm sentimental. I'm affectionate. I'm idealistic. I'm practical (in the material sense). I love philosophizing and theorizing.I'm a goal-setter and a dreamer. I'm artsy; I love photography and making things from junkyards and out of clay. I love nature, parks and trees. I love reading, writing, and music. I love thrift shops. I love movies based on real-life happenings dealing with people and their lives and how they've overcome certain challenges.I like working with people and their potential. I'd like to help people discover their strengths and weaknesses, values and beliefs, and what's really important to them. I derive great satisfaction from being a supporter of people and being a supportive listener/helper.I think that life is a continual learning process in which we share with one another, and I would like to use my own experiences to help others and to serve as an example. I believe in human potential, but I also know that potential is essentially useless or less effective if not otherwise channeled and that to ever reach one's fullest, we must exercise it and exert some discipline into our lives, implementing some structure. As a result of such actions, comes a certain degree of freedom and objectivity having been gained through discipline. I like to find ways to make this reality.In my life I try as hard as possible to maintain healthy habits—exercise, diet, and sleep, all of which I find essential to the whole, to the core of ones essence in regards to supreme functioning. If I had to cap it all into one, life is all about meanings and possibilities and close connections with others; however, to accomplish anything, one must be willing to put in the time and effort.I like to say that in order to accomplish anything, one must have an eye on the road ahead of them while still maintaining an eye on the road itself. I believe that what you put in you get back to some degree, and I feel it's very important to get out there and get the experience that it takes in order to have a well-rounded perspective and be successful.Success to all of us means something different; to me, success is derived from pleasing others and being able to provide for them all the while taking care of my own needs. It's about giving it your all and putting your best into it. Success is not self-serving, either, but for the greater good; it's about utilizing your strengths and weaknesses and using them to help others. I believe once you've been able to help yourself and find a good balance, you can live a relatively happy, fulfilled life.
