1 Peter 5:2-4

About Me

i'm diane. i have learned that there are friends for a season and there are friends for a reason... and i hope to be the type of person that is there for a reason. i have learned that under all circumstances, God is an awesome God who keeps molding our character through all things good and bad. my life's verse is Jeremiah 29:11-14. i let people that i love know how i feel, that they are important to me, verbalizing that i love them every chance i get to. i think that is the most important thing in life... as much as i love to be with friends and family, i am more of a one-on-one time kind of person. i like to get to know who i surround myself with and i like to take the time to make the people i care about feel really appreciated. i like straight forward people. i am a literal thinker. i am not a mind reader. nor are you so don't assume anything more than what i say and what i do. i have learned that life is too short to fear what others have to say about me. i like to have fun. i love fashion- which is probably the reason why i have worked retail while doing my masters program... someday, i want to open my own boutique once i get settled and comfortable with my carreer. i like to relax. i also like to be serious from time to time. i'm excited to do what i was born to do: care. i hope i can be as great a teacher as my mom and the mentors i have had the pleasure of working with. remember these?
