THRIVER
🌻Tenacity. Hope brings me the courage to seek daily goals. I choose to step forward. I choose to believe in Christ. I choose to serve my community. Choice is happiness. Happiness is a choice. I've learned so many things from going through life and the most important is that each day is a gift. I choose to live that gift in the best way I know how - to love God, my family, myself, and my community. Taking one day, one step at a time to choose happiness. We all have that choice and many years I was lost. I thank God for seeking me out as His daughter first and foremost. He gives me hope and will. He planted a seed in me long ago to become bilingual. What a gift! I meet so many people who teach me along the way. I am blessed with this gift. Although it can make life difficult at times being a part of 2 different worlds; it is me.Through blogging I seek to share life experiences, lessons I've learned, and to continue my writing; as it is a passion of mine that helps heal, hopes to inspire, and describes not just being a survivor; yet a THRIVER.🌻
