I am trying to appreciate my family and friends more. I think of God. I think of Him healing me. My life is not perfect but my life doesn’t necessarily have to be perfect for me to appreciate it. I have been publishing poems in a publication at NAMI the organization I have volunteered for over ten years now. I got really comfortable with myself as I am. Bruno Mars a new recording artist has this song Just The Way You Are. I love it “when I see your face there’s not a thing I would change ’cause girl you’re amazing just the way you are…” I have always been the girl who was nice but not enough to get the man I like or the job I apply for but I really genuinely like myself.
