This Is Me And It's No Where Near Good Enough

What to know the real me? Here it is

Who Am I? Well, you are about to find out.

I used to like sunsets but I am obsessed with surprising now. The sun just rising up with the orange and yellow horizon. The bluebirds singing with the rising sun.

I am obsessed with tea now, I used to be obsessed with coffee. It used to my drug. I would not be able to walk out of the apartment without a cup, I would drink one at night. I would not go a day with at least two cups of coffee. But suddenly I can't even drink one cup of coffee. I drink at least three cups of tea every day now.

I used to know like bright colors like pink blue, mint green, yellow, etc. I used to not like spring or summer. But now every time I go shopping I can't leave a mall without a bright colored item!

I can not stay up past 10:00 anymore, I am in my PJs by 9:00 and cuddling with my sheets watching Netflix. I wake up 6:00 every morning no matter what I have going on that day.

I am so much confidence and I love showing my curves, I know that I am beautiful and smart and I am made for something big.

I am a survivor of anorexia. I am now confident that I am fearfully and wonderfully made because I am a child of the one true king. I can call the Lord of Lords and King of Kings my father.

My family is not perfect but I know my mother and father will do anything to protect me and no matter what they are always looking out for the good of their daughter. I love them and would not ask for any other parents to raise me.

No one is perfect, I am not perfect.

I have let God down.

I have done sins behind my parents back. I have disobeyed my parents.

I have gossiped about my friends. I have lied, cheated, stole. I have said one thing and did another.

All have fallen short of the glory of God.

What counts and what God looks at is if we are completely transparent with him and we are honest and confess that we are sinners. It counts if we get back up or not. It counts if we are truly repetitive and turns from our wicked ways and change from the precious blood of Jesus Christ that he sent to die on a cross for us. It counts if we turn our hearts back to God.

God loves us but just hates the sin that inches its way into our heart that is designed to love him and only him.

I completely depend on God's strength. Time and time again God has shown me that without him I am nothing. Without him, I have no strength, hope, vision, purpose. God is my everything. No matter what he is always there with open arms.

I am a child of God.

I am an overcomer.

I am not perfect.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
