Live right now. Just be yourself. It doesn't matter if it's good enough for someone else.

About Me

I was taught as a little girl, that "you teach people how to treat you," and it's most truth I've ever recieved in life. You get what you give and what you allow. We fear the things we want the most in life. Always be real, know that impossible IS nothing, and never fear who you were meant to be. I recently spent a month in another state facing addictions, facing truth, facing life, and my worst fear of all: who nature always intended me to be. Now here I am a million times stronger and hell-bent on making it on my own in this life, and there isn't a thing in this world that could possibly stand in my way. Those of you who have seen me through all this, I cannot thank you enough. You alone have saved my life, literally. You know this. So I preach now, to ALWAYS know who you are, and follow your heart and above all NEVER SETTLE; this advice has left me with the upperhand. Embrace yourself from EVERY aspect. Don't ever let life pass you by. People cannot make you feel inferior with out your permission. Stand for what you believe in, EVEN if what you believe in stops you from breathing!* ALWAYS allow yourself to have the upperhand. You're all you've got in the end. Remember: They'll respect you if you respect yourself. Always speak your mind. Have faith in Karma, it will satisfy you everytime. This is YOUR life, it's just one chance. Be true to yourself, fuck what everyone else is saying.

People who have a passion for life, who have some in common with me, such as: hating TRENDS!, hating the color pink with a passion, lovin' draft beer, obsessed with unbelievable music, down to earth, love the outdoors, and someone who knows themselves better than anyone else and is content with that. I'd love to get into boxing again and triathalons. Being real is kind of a big deal, dude. So is being Irish, but it's not a pre-req. You're either with it or you're not. I'm an in your face kind of person, I appreciate the same in return.
