So today I am starting to track my life and change everything! I need to be who I am instead of being afraid to have my life, I need to LIVE my life, and not be afraid to wear my heart on my sleeve and create a new life!
Well today October 22, 2013 I am going to share a little bit of my life with you, I am going to be as honest as I can be, and I am going to tell you just the small details because I share my life with many who are close to me not millions I don't know or who don't really even care. If I can somehow encourage, motivate, or inspire people along the way I don't want credit I just want it to be paid forward. I am a human and I make more mistakes then anyone, god made me this way and I am encouraged through his love and selfishness to share with others and be here for them.
A friend showed this to me and it makes me feel amazing, but not what I have ever strived for! I have only tried to be the best me I can be, I try to be the best daughter, sister, cousin, niece, granddaughter, teacher, friend, coworker, girlfriend, and partner in crime I can be! If others find inspiration or motivation then more power to you and thank you for the words of encouragement!
So I'm here to give you so insight;
Currently I am:

But I work my butt off to pretend it doesn't effect me or others around me it is the easiest way for me to function in today's society! :)

My goal is to go from wanting this to cut off my leg... Jawsaw in the picture below.
To become this person in ALLLLL aspects of my life (pictured below.)
My student's wrote the saying above and that is me with my neck tattoo!! It is my daily reminder that I can do anything and everything that I put my mind to! That is all for today! Going to sleep a few hours walk a few miles teach a few kiddos and start the first day of the rest of my life! Thank you everyone for your support and love through this!
And last but not least I always plug in my disease to make sure people are understanding what is going on in life! SO please if you can ever help support research and medical findings in RSD and Gastroparesis!
