When we let our own light shine, we automatically give others permission to do the same.

About Me

I am best defined by my voice, my enthusiasm, my smile and my sense of humor. I'm spoiled and I'm selfish, but I'm working to give back to others, no matter how big a part of my life. I believe that's why I'm here...
What do you believe?
"Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great." Mark Twain
My Miss Texas Talent
I am extremely defensive of those I love yet can be horribly ungrateful if you catch me at the wrong time. I tend to make the worst of things but I surprise myself on occasion. I am not the angel most think I am but I have a heart that doesn't leave room for hate or for judgement. I have dreams so big that it is difficult not to feel like a failure sometimes. But despite the days I feel down, I believe, truly, that my potential is endless. I have had opportunities I never imagined for myself and more people than I can count to support me along the way. I'll never be grateful enough for what I've been given and there are so many moments I forget completely just how blessed I am. My faith in people might shock you, and I pride myself on my ability to get to know others so quickly. I talk more than I listen and I take things for granted. But besides time I have wasted, despite my longing for a simpler time, I have hope; Hope that my life be more a reflection of all that has been given to me, hope that others too may look at the sky and be assured that there is a God who can make sense of even the messiest of lives and hope that as I am weak, I can be made strong, that as I am poor, I can be made rich. I hope that this short, sweet life no longer be something I take so lightly...

I want to go back to a time when I didn't have to make choices everyday that affected the rest of my life so dramatically; when the weekend was exciting because I'd get to spend it at my best friends ...
