CURRENT MISSION To live ABOUT ME Beauty is intelligence, understanding, bonds, friendships, family, love, realizations, moments, strength, independence. I see the world in abstract thoughts. I see minor details. I look deeper into things than I would like at times. I dont know who I am but Ive been through enough to know what I dont want. I know whats good for me and I can easily recognize the friendships that will lead me on the right path. In my eyes the world is too small and my idea of heaven is to be free. I like to think I have reached that freedom, not in action but in my emotions and my mind. Its a way of thinking. I have been depressed. I have been happy, but my life is not black and white. It is filled with alot of experiences that to others, might fall short of exciting, but to me everyday I am alive is a new exciting adventure. And I have pin pointed what exactly is my driving force and that is beauty. I long for beauty in personal relationships, friends or boyfriends, nature, family, my bed, my house, my school, I see beauty in it all. I unfortuntly saw first hand how life is short, and I only have a short about of time to make this mark on history. i can love but let go, and I try to understand. but sometimes at the end of the day I just sit back and laugh at the fact that i have to accept that some things in life are beyond our understandings. Somethings in life are just meant to be left alone. Why waste your time dwelling on such unimportant matters. All thats left to do is take in the beauty, and its almost imppossible to see all the beauty if your mind is so easily destracted by hate, immaturity, and regrets.Life is all about changing and growing. No one said it would be easy, and no one promised total freedom. How I know I am still ok is that I can sit back and get butterflys in my stomach not because I am in love with a man, but because I am in love with the world. PHILOSOPHY those who visit foreign nations, but associate only with their own countrymen, change their climate, but not their customs. They see new meridians, but the same men and with heads as empty as their pockets, return home, with travelled bodies, but untraveled minds-caleb colton Traveling is a brutality. It forces you to trust strangers and to lose sight of all that familiar comfort of home and friends. You are constantly off balance. Nothing is yours except the essential things – air, sleep, dreams, the sea, the sky – all things tending towards the eternal or what we imagine of it.” – Cesare Pavese Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not-ralph waldo emerson To awaken alone in a strange town is one of the pleasantest sensations in the world- Freya stark Travel is more than the seeing of sights, it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent in the ideas of living-miriam beard
