for a purpose - That I was different. I knew because what young child has the courage to tell the person who is supposed to care for them that they need to change. What young child understands that when speakers come to schools and talk about there lives they are meant to take it to heart. What young child takes that burden for their own without a blink of an eye. I knew because I wasn't the child who played on the playground and didn't worry. I knew because I was the child going to the grocery store with her sister to grab milk and bread at the age of 7. I knew because I was the child who watched men meant to be a positive example walk in and out of my life. I knew because even tho everything that happened would be enough to tear a person into a million different directions I kept positive and genuine. I just didn't know that in that moment God had made a decision to change my life forever. I didn't know I was going to be challenged daily. I didn't realize that from that moment on - everything I was going to do would eventually cause me to reflect upon this moment in time. God had started my life with strength and he was watching me build up the strength to endure the many other struggles I would need to go through. He taught me to be the best version of myself I could with the tools I was given. God knew I would struggle with finding negatives in people and that it would get me into trouble. But not once did he loose faith in my capabilities, so he gave me the challenge to provide and be who I am;

A teacher. A support system. Courage. The power of communication. Passion. Drive. Dedication. Outgoing. Spirited. Uplifting. Understanding. Patient. Kind. Encouraging. I never really felt like I was good enough - I never felt like I could make a difference - The difference I really and truly want to make. It takes being knocked down, battered, and bruised to find the light. To push yourself beyond expectation. It takes being so unsure of yourself that you think you should give up and getting back up again and keeping on going. Never feeling good enough will only continue to push me to be better. I wont lie, I am human and I do feel exceptionally upset sometimes. I feel alone, I feel useless, I feel unwanted, I feel weak, I feel like my words aren't being heard, and sometimes I even want to give up. But the best thing about being me is I know that everyone goes through things in life and it really makes you grow. It changes who you are and sets you on a different level than the people you have around - You will relate to the people you need too. God will allow what you need when you need it. Sometimes its a hard lesson to be learn, but you will always come out with knowledge and a deeper understanding that you can pass forward. My story may be deeper than some people out there, but everyone has a story to tell and everyone has a lesson to teach someone. Listen carefully - If you can't learn from someone than learn it on your own - But in life you will always be under construction. Take the days as they come and push to be better than the day before. Do not allow yourself to get consumed in sadness or doubt, Push yourself to the limits and exceed your own expectations. This life is not easy. This life is going to be so hard that eventually it will kill you... But this life is yours to hold dear to you and to unfold uniquely as an individual. Be proud and courageous. You have a lot to offer this world - Let your light shine. If you don't believe in God than believe that your energy and vibrations will guild you. That how you monitor and see things in life changes by just the beat of your heart. Feel this life. The faster your heart beats the more things will change around you and fit into those vibrations.
