About Me

so...yes i have moved once again. and though i hate the moving part, there is something cleansing in the act of starting over. here the sun seems so much brighter and it makes it easier to just be me....happy. not that i was overly unhappy before, but it is just effortless here. i am discovering new things about me every day. my mind and eyes have been open to so many things i would have never thought i would understand. it is amazing what putting yourself in someone elses shoes will do for understanding. but over all at the end of the day i am just me. what you see is what you get. if you dont really know me you should take the time to get to...i would like to do the same. for those of you that i do know...know that everyone of you are in my thoughts and prayers everyday. "The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man." -George Bernard Shaw
