About me: This is my mantra of sorts... :) I will obey the greatest and most sacred commandments as designated by the Lord Jesus Christ Himself: I will love God with all my heart, with all my mind, with all my soul, with all my strength, and essentially, with all that I am, and love my neighbor as myself. I understand that this purpose, love, is the sole reason I exist, and that every bit of my potential and value and purpose lies in this one word and idea--LOVE.
I will forge beautiful relationships with other human beings, living with love in every step, following the example of how my Lord has loved people and seeing them through the lens of grace.
I will allow a constant shaping by God's own hand to take place in my life, always thinking of the person He has made me to be, knowing He is using every moment I am on this earth to make me into that person, because of His overwhelming love for me.
I will allow my fellow human beings to be who they are, not who I would have them be, and do my best to help them with they have fallen or have been pushed down, with the goal of aiding them in becoming the exact wonderful human beings that they were created to be in every moment of their lives, knowing that this is part of loving others and my responsibility as a human.
This is something that is really important to me:
