We are born with the ability to love, yet we have to develop it like you would any other muscle.

About Me

Katherine: Pure, untainted, above immorality.
I long to live a life worthy of my name. What I want more than anything is a purity of my heart and mind. I'm being broken and my heart is being softened. It hurts more than anything I've encountered, but it's the best thing that's ever happened to me. I am not my own anymore, I live with purpose and with hope for the plan he has for my life.
I'm a fighter, I've fallen a lot in my life but I always get up. I'm loyal, tell me a secret and it will not escape my lips. I'm passionate, I don't do anything half way. I appreciate the small things in life and am thankful for every moment I get. I've never been described as pretty or intellectual, but I am beautiful. And if you can't see that maybe you're not looking closely enough.
First year at Rockford Masters Commission and I have a feeling that I ain't seen nothing yet.
"When we're standing face to face all I wanna hear you say is I have been the one you're looking for."
