Who Am I?

I haven't blogged in so long, I don't know if anyone even looks anymore, but maybe I will get back into it. For my senior English class we are doing a senior memoir project where we write a series of memories and thoughts in the form of chapters. I will probably be sharing those, this is one of them. 

 Who am I?

I am a dreamer.

A sister, daughter and friend.

I am a lover of those around me,

A giver of hope to those who need kind words,

A listener to the hurting,

and a giver of advice to those who need direction in life.

I am a caretaker and a worker.

I laugh.

Music is in my soul.

I am addicted to Mountain Dew

I enjoy the sweetness and caffeine rush of iced coffee.

I wear cowboy boots, a country girl.

Simple is what I am.

A believer in Christ who died for me.

I believe beauty is more than skin deep, I look for the good in people.

Sometimes I am quick to complain, so I remind myself to look up daily.

I’m a thinker and often over analyze things.

I am the middle child.

I grew up rough and tumble with the boys, I’m not scared of a fight.

I worry.

Many days I am simply a mess.

I have traveling in my blood.

South Dakota is my home, and my heart always wants to come home,

Open fields and endless skies call my name.

I am a lover of words and a reader of books.

My only goal in life is to be content with where I am.

I’m the girl who falls easily and cares deeply.

I find beauty in the little things of life.

I am an imperfect being in an imperfect world.

Every day I learn more about myself:

I am a work in progress.
