anyone who doesn't settle for less than what they're capable of being, achieving, having, giving...all without hurting, manipulating or walking all over other people
About me: She was an American girl, raised on promises. She couldn’t help but think there was a little more to life somewhere else. After all, it was a great big world. ~ Tom Petty
Who I'd like to meet: Those who share my interests. People who are creative and expressive. Music fiends, book junkies and witty intellects. And let's not forget those who enjoy a good beer, like Rogue's Hazelnut Brown.
We shrink from change; yet is there anything that can come into being without it? — Marcus Aurelius
It takes courage to push yourself to places that you have never been before... to test your limits... to break through barriers. And the day came when the risk it took to remain tight inside the bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom. . . I, with a deeper instinct, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me nave or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman. - Anais Nin
Words of advice: People are always going to want you to live your life their way, to fall into line. Who says society’s norms are all that normal? Sometimes you’ve got to put on your captain’s hat and wear it like a helmet.
Merry late Christmas and happy early new year. :) I hope that you guys have a good one. Or technically I should have said had a good one and have a great up coming one. Anyway eat drink and disturb the neighbors. If they say anything, tell them that I said you could do it. They won't bother you after that. ;)
You're right, blast from the past. How did you end up in AZ? I saw Becky a few weeks ago in church. What's happened in the last umm...7 years...sheesh time is freaking flying.
So how is Alicia's world. anything new and exciting? I know I don't communicate very well with those who aren't immediately around me and I'd like to change that. So what's up?
