Small Town Girl: Growing up

"Life... Hmmm what is life? Some may say it's the existence of an individual human being or animal. But in my book life is a roller coaster with a bunch of loops and turns. Living life is if you can exit the ride being the best person you could be or being the worst. Every day there is a chance for you to change your life. It's your choice if you want it to be positive or negative. As Harvey Fierstein said " Accept no one's definition of life, define yourself." It took me a while to understand it, you may be wondering why would it take me so long to understand a silly quote... it's deeper than what we see...look deeper. So the question is what does life mean to you. "

"My life is one of those roller coasters that have so many surprising and scary moments that you can't help but to vomit. There has been many times when I was ready to unfasten my seatbelt and jump but I thought about the thrill that I had on that roller coaster and just because I had a few or a lot of loops and turns that I could keep going."

"In the beginning of life we're like sponges, soaking up things from language, how to walk, and emotions, it's a variety. Then your a toddler, preschooler, then you hit your middle childhood, and then your at your preadolescence. Next, your a teenager and it's that finally moment you figure yourself out, but it's not until your a adult till you figure out who you are and your purpose."
