About Me

Pain is part of life and how we choose to deal with it is what defines us. Hurt is inevitable, but if we accept it and move on, we only become stronger. Challenge each day to be wonderful. Make the most of everything. Find the beauty in every moment, every smile, every second of daylight, every star in the sky. Step out bravely knowing that the world can only bring you down if you let it. You choose.If you judge people, you have no time to love them." -- Mother TeresaTell me who admires you and loves you, and I will tell you who you are. -- Charles Augustin Sainte-BeauveI edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor

Leaving so soon?

I never thought I'd want to stay in Napa. 6 months ago I was so ready to get out of here. But now, I'm even sad to be leaving for the weekend to go to Catalina. I've gotten a lot closer to quite a ...
