I am here for Friends

About Me

I am a very laid back person who likes to have a good time all the time. At this point in my life i am taking everything one day at a time. Life is just coming too fast from too many angles. And i am just trying to handle it a little at a time. But i'm learning that some things are just not in my control and i have to just keep on moving. And try not look back. Just keep taking care of myself. That seems to be the case for me always.I Know My Soul by Claude McKayI plucked my soul out of its secret place,
And held it to the mirror of my eye,
To see it like a star against the sky,
A twitching body quivering in space,
A spark of passion shining on my face.
And I explored it to determine why
This awful key to my infinity
Conspires to rob me of sweet joy and grace.
And if the sign may not be fully read,
If I can comprehend but not control,
I need not gloom my days with futile dread,
Because I see a part and not the whole.
Contemplating the strange, I'm comforted
By this narcotic thought: I know my soul.
Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved. Helen Keller (1880 - 1968)“Whatever relationships you have attracted in your life at this moment, are precisely the ones you need in your life at this moment. There is a hidden meaning behind all events, and this hidden meaning is serving your own evolution."Deepak Chopra
