Oh what I would do to have
The kind of faith it takes to climb out of the boat I'm in
Onto the crashing waves

To step out of my comfort zone
To the realm of the unknown where Jesus is
And He's holding out his hand

But the waves are calling out my name and they laugh at me
Reminding me of all the times I've tried before and failed
The waves they keep on telling me
Time and time again "Boy, you'll never win!"
"You'll never win"

But the voice of truth tells me a different story
And the voice of truth says "Do not be afraid!"
And the voice of truth says "This is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth

"The Following Message Is Your Best Bet At Understanding Me"

I am first and foremost a CHRISTIAN woman who would very much like to do the right thing by living a clean, pure and Godly life. I aim and strive to be the Christian woman, daughter, wife, mother and friend that God has called me to be. Though I am currently only a daughter and friend, some day I will be called to be a wife and possibly a mother. And though I might struggle, stumble and make countless mistakes in my walk with God, deep down I know that God is with me even when I don't see it or even believe it. Normally I don't go out of my way to discuss my faith or my relationship with Jesus but I am trying to work on that. With all of that being said, DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT add me as a friend if you are NOT prepared to accept ALL aspects of my life especially when it concerns my relationship with God.

"Important & Random Facts About Me"

I am a young adult that is viewed as a child by many. Not by choice of course but it’s mainly because I tend to be very naïve and idealistic about a lot of things. I’m perfectly capable of seeing the world in black and white but I do know shades of gray tend to appear which makes it impossible to nagivate through some of life’s harder challenges sometimes.

I have what many people would consider childish hobbies/pleasures. I’m not an adult by any means because I haven’t experienced anything that could classify me as an adult. I’ve dealt with heartache, grief, loss, pain, betrayal and deceit just like anyone else but that doesn’t mean I’m an adult. It just means I’m human.

My real world experience is basically limited to college life. I haven’t done anything that could be considered adultish such as paying off credit card bills or a mortgage loan. I can be an adult when I choose to be, however, so don’t let my childlike mannerisms or behavior fool you.

I feel like an old woman sometimes because I feel like I’m more mature and grown up than my two older siblings combined. I’m also an old fashioned girl when it comes to certain beliefs/views such as waiting until you’re married to have sex, being courted by your future husband instead of dating him and treating your significant other as your equal. I could go on and on about old fashioned mannerisms but we’ll be here all day if I do that.

I'm a notorious busybody and I can be extremely talkative. I have a very weird sense of humor and there's also the fact that I am easily amused. I've a bit of a temper, I try to be open minded about most subjects and I have a bit of a stubborn streak in me. I'm also very passionate and a fiery person but I also consider myself a rarity or better yet an oddball.

"Current Events Going On In My Life"

This should come as no surprise to many of you but I am currently on the last stretch of my college career. So I've decided to sit out for a year from school. I'm still going to work for City Year though. Basically I'll be working as a tutor/mentor to the kids in my state for a whole year. It's a strong possibility that this might open up more doors for me if I decide to pursue a teaching career.

I really do believe that my purpose in life is to work in the medical field as a doctor specializing in cancer. I plan to accomplish this by becoming a pediatric oncologist. That translates to me basically being a doctor who specializes in working with children who suffer from cancer. It is my hope that one day we will find a cure for cancer. I hope to be a part of the team that discovers a cure for cancer. The main reason why I feel so strongly about this particular subject is because I don't want anyone else to go through what I went through with my mother and various other loved ones.

If my calling as a doctor doesn't come to fruition then I am more than willing to reach out to the younger generation as a teacher. If I end up becoming a teacher then I'd like to teach on the elementary school level or even middle school level. I have worked as a tutor/mentor before so I imagine there must be some sort of greater reason as to why I was able to work as a tutor/mentor. Everything happens for a reason right?

"Friends Only Policy"

Nothing personal but I decided to make this journal friends only because I've had one too many dramatic encounters on my previous journals. Yep this isn't my first journal. This is actually my third journal. With this journal I tend to open up about a lot of personal issues/situations. I tend to bare it all in my journal which basically means I have a bad habit of wearing my heart on my sleeve. So those are my main reasons as to why I decided to make this a friend's only journal. If you really want to be my friend then I have to know you from somewhere! Most of the people I've friended are people I know through various fandoms or I know them pretty well in real life. At any rate, if I haven't scared you off or talked your ear off yet then please keep in mind that my journal is a place to reflect and discuss my thoughts and feelings on WHATEVER I would like to discuss. If you can handle all aspects of me and I do mean ALL aspects of me then by all means friend me!
