What is it that scares you?
'What is it that scares you about writing?' He knew her more than anyone, and He wanted her to face her fear. Blushing, she replied defensively. 'I'm not scared.' He was not convinced. 'Comm'on I see fear written all over your face.' Finally she broke.
'It's personal. I write about my dreams, my passions, my fears, my insecurities, my secrets.' She paused to collect herself. 'My secrets revealed. It exposes pieces of my personality that I’ve never felt before. All the feelings and emotions I hold back.’ Without thinking she added, ‘my anger.’ Covering her mouth she could not believe the word that had just escaped.
Years of being hurt over and over again, had been silenced into words on paper. That was her way of dealing with it, instead of voicing what she believed to be true.
Falling to her knee’s she cried to herself on the inside, keeping the tears inside to bleed her heart.
‘It hurts so bad,’ the lump in her throat choking her every word.

Favorite quote
This is one of my most favrorite quotes. Think about it... What does it mean to you?
"If who I am is what I have,
and what I have is lost.
Then who am I?"
"If who I am is what I have,
and what I have is lost.
Then who am I?"
Who I am??
What is it that you see in me?
that you know for sure you want to be with me,
for the rest of your life.
What is it that you wanna see?
What part of my personality,
is it that you like?
Because I'm changing everyday,
will you still love me tomorrow?
I'm up and down, still have not found who I am.
In this world I'm a troubled girl,
Who can't figure out what this life's about.
I wander these empty streets, I've lost a part of me.
I don't know what to do, and so I shadow you.
Losing grip of reality.
Doing my best to keep everyone happy,
I worry to much I know.
Trying to please, I've lost my dreams.
Life it seems, has no meaning.
I've let myself go.
Don't leave me hanging, say that you'll stay.
I'll always love you forever.
Please understand, that I'm still searching for who I am.
In this world, I'm a troubled girl.
Who can't figure out what this life's about.
I wander these empty streets, I've lost a part of me.
I don't know what to do, and so I shadow you.
I've let myself go,
so who I am? I don't really know.
But I'll figure it out, on my own.
____________________________________________________________________
Be content with who you are, because in this world nobody is perfect. Everyone has their flaws, it's when you concentrate on what's wrong that you lose sight of all the good and wonderful qualities that you have.
Learn from the past.
Focus on the present.
Prepare for the future.

Life changing experience
For a moment, she didn't want to believe it. The room around her spun. Could it be true? Blinking her eyes, once, twice, even a third time, didn't change what lie before her. 'Don't give up now', she told herself. 'You can do this'. Looking in the mirror, she did not recognize the reflection staring back at her. That of a young woman, brave and courgeous. For the first time in her life, she wasn't afraid.

Message to Michelle (on Birthday Card)
HOW TO MAKE
A Beautiful Life
Reflections For A Daughter
On Her Birthday
Love yourself.
MAKE PEACE with who you are
And where you are
At this moment in time.
Listen to your heart.
If you can’t hear what it’s saying
In this noisy world,
Make Time for yourself.
Enjoy your own company.
Let your mind wander among the stars.
Try.
Take chances.
MAKE MISTAKES.
Life can be messy
And confusing at times,
But it’s also full of surprises.
The next rock in your path
might be a stepping-stone.
Be happy.
When you don’t have what you want,
want what you have.
MAKE DO.
That’s a well-kept secret of contentment.
There aren’t any shortcuts to tomorrow.
You have to Make Your Own Way.
To know where you’re going
is only part of it.
You need to know where you’ve been, too.
And if you ever get lost, don’t worry.
The people who love you will find you.
Count on it.
Life isn’t days and years.
It’s what you do with time
And with all the goodness and grace
That’s inside you.
MAKE A BEAUTIFUL LIFE…
The kind of life you deserve.
love
Mom & Dad
