My Favorite Little Words of Wisdom!!:))

Life is too short to wake up with regrets. SO love the people who treat you right! Pray for those who don't! Believe everything happens for a reason! If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands! If it changes your life, let it! God never said it would be easy, he just said it would be worth it!!

Give thanks for what you are now, and keep fighting for what you want to be tomorrow

Never regret! If its good, its wonderful! If its bad, its experience

There are times when you've got to forget what you want and go for what you deserve

Life may not lead you where you want, but have faith and you are exactly where you were meant to be

Love is like heights, people are not necessarily afraid of it, their true fear lies behind the idea of falling

Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear

When you feel like giving up, remember why you held on so long in the first place.

Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says I'll try again tomorrow.

Don't compromise yourself! You are all you've got

The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just have to decide who is worth the pain.

Sometimes we love with nothing more than hope. Sometimes we cry with everything except tears

No one can make you feel inferior without your consent

Proud to be an American

Since July 4th is quickly approaching...I wanted to mention a few things that I am thankful for!!!

1. That I have a roof over my head, clothes on back, food on the table, and a car with the gas tank filled.

2. My parents-no matter how much we argue-they could not be better providers or caregivers

3. My freedom-I think I take that for granted everyday-but seriously I am thankful that I can speak about topics that are important to me, that I can vote in any election, that I can choose to pray or not to. It is such a powerful gift to have.

4. For our troops fighting over seas and these ones fighting for us here!- I could never thank them enough- their sacrifice is amazing and selfless.

5. For my education- I am learning more and more everyday on how to saves Gods children..Its a difficult process, but one that could change the world

6. My faith- It is my decision-one that was not forced upon me and not one that could ever be taken from me!!

7. My friends- I've had a difficult year and without them, I would be lost...I can honestly say that I have the best friends in the whole world.

8. Opportunity- I can be anyone I want to be, go anywhere I want to go, and not think twice about it...I have the world at my finger tips and its up to me as to what I do with it!!

9. America- Our country is the best country in the entire world..we come together when times are hard and lend a hand when a fellow American is in need

10. Memories- Everyone of them has shaped me into the person I am today...as a baby to High school to college...to post grad...and everything in between!

11. Being young- I love people thinking that because of my age, I am inexperienced or immature. I love to prove them all wrong

5 more trivial things I am thankful for

1. My television shows- couldn't live without Friday Night Lights or Vampire Diaries or Dancing with the Stars...love my big rock in life

2. Hot Men- Taylor Kitsh, Zac Efron, James Franco...always nice to look at some good eye candy

3. Blaring my music on a summer day with the windows down....nothing more liberating

4. Clothes..I love to shop and I love fashion..what can I say I am a typical girl

5. Going to the lake with friends, a boat, and a cooler of my favorite beverages

5 Songs that Changed My life

Here are 5 songs that in one way or another have impacted my life.

1. Fight Like a Girl: Bomshell- A very empowering song dedicated to the strong woman. It makes me feel like I can accomplish and conquer anything

Hold your head high. Don't ever let them define that light in your eyes. Love yourself. Give them Hell.You can take on this world. You just stand and be strong. And then Fight like a girl. With style and grace. Kick ass and take names

2. Cool Thing: Rascal Flatts- This song defined my senior year of college. My roommates and I used to drive around Oxford, with the windows down, blaring this song. It will always hold a special place in my heart and to this day still will give me chill bumps.

She was on break from Ohio State. And I was down there selling para sail rides. Just another summer day, until I strapped her in and watched her fly. Talk about a sunset. All I could see were purples and reds. Ans her silhouette waving goodbye. She didn't come here looking for love and the cool thing was....Neither did I.

3. Without You: Hinder- This song completely explains my whole breakup with Jonathan. I live it up a little more everyday. And when we first broke up I thought I would never get through it...But I realized I am fine...No better without him. True blessing!!

Without you, I live it up a little more everyday. Without you, I'm seeing myself so differently. I didn't wanna believe it then, but it all worked out in the end. When I watched you walked away, well, I never thought I'd say I'm fine without you.

4. Believe: Orithani- Another breakup song..but it also describes my tattoo. This song is so powerful and liberating. I love to blare it in my car...So fabulous

And I wanna believe in love. I wanna believe in something bigger than the 2 of us.

And I wanna breathe again. I wanna go back to the days, the days I had my innocence. I wanna believe again.

5. Times Like These: Foo Fighters- This is just my favorite song of all times. It just made me realize the importance of recognizing times that could change me life. And through these times, I have learned to love again and live again!!

I'm a new day rising. I;m a brand new sky to hang the stars upon tonight. I'm a little divided. Do I stay or run away? and Leave it all behind. Its times like these you learn to live again. Its times like these you give and give again. Its times like these you learn to love again. Its times like these, time and time again.
