About Me

I'm a really -intensely-free-spirited person. I'm passionate about life in all of it's astounding beauty and breath-taking tragedy...and I've seen more than most of both extremes. I've been told that I bring depth to people's lives, which is a really amazing compliment in my opinion {smile} I'm a very non-judgemental person which equates to tons of different/unique types of friends, and I love them all for thier own individual spirits. I've also been told that I'm artistically visioned. Photography, expression through poetic writings, and capturing the details of this life and draining it to the dregs are the three greatest passions in my life. I once, shockingly enough, let my gaurd down long enough to fall in love...and I loved being in love. I'm a romantic in every sense of the word. I thouroughly enjoy going out of my way to take care of the people who mean the most to me. I'm really close to my family as well and consider my mom my best friend in the entire world. I also strongly believe in God. Currently I am continuing the ongoing struggle of letting Him be the one who is in control of my life, and I'm working on accepting the path to whatever road He chooses to lead me down...and by His saving grace...I'm actually feeling amazingly peaceful and breathing well!
