I am here for Friends

About Me

i have always been the little girl chasing dragonflies while the other kids were paying attention to the lesson or lining up for the next activity. i dance to my own drummer. i am an enigma. i have fallen into the abyss but managed to make my way back out, dust off the dirt, and keep going. i want to taste and see all that life has to offer. i want to wake up one morning in michigan and lay my head to rest in the evening in boston, italy, paris, south carolina, or ireland. i want to spend all day at the art museum or aquarium. i want to backpack through the smokey mountains and camp on manitou island or pictured rock. i love spontaneity and realize that you can do some really memorable things on a whim, like visiting the Field Museum (love ya Bri!!). someday i will have a scrapbook of photos, post cards, and memories to look back on. life is what you make of it; good, bad, or ugly becomes your choice to dwell on or break through. i am me and that's all i have to offer. take it or leave it kids because i'm not changing.
