The 26 year old version of me: I no longer attend college. That's the nice way of saying I dropped out, I guess. Too bad I'm still paying back all the loans :( I found my niche in the apartment industry and I'm doing quite well in it. I'm a people person, I'd never make it in a cubicle. I wanted to be a teacher more than anything, but Michigan's economy is holding me back from that. As much as I'd love to teach, I'm not willing to go where the jobs are. My friends and family mean the world to me. So, honestly, my career needs to keep me close to them. Money would mean nothing to me if they weren't around. I absolutely LOVE children, especially babies, and I hope to have a whole bunch of them someday. I'm starting to want those days to come sooner than later. The older I get the more I come to realize that I want to be a stay at home mom. I never expected it out of myself, and it may seem like a waste. But, to me, it feels like the most fulfilling and important job I can think of. My favorite hobby is eating.
I don't eat anything healthy. I can't live without sweets and I salt everything. I believe that life is about building relationships. My new obsession is polkadots and I prefer everything to be black, white and pink :) My goal in life is to become the best person I can be and to continuously strive to be better. I am proud to say I am a follower of Jesus. Laugh if you want, but I will scream it from the roof tops. I used to be a non-believer, so I understand those that don't believe.But, my life is way better with Christ. I analyze everything, think with my heart and live by my emotions.
BEAUTIFUL CHRISTIAN SISTER
by MAYA ANGELOU:A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
that a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'
When I say. 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean livin''
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'
When I say. 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.
When I say. 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.
When I say 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.
When I say. 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible but, God believes I am worth it.
When I say. 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain..
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.
When I say. 'I am a Christian' I'm no t holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!{}
