Bio

Though you know so few words...

I'm not as glamorous as I'd like to be. I'm not as smart as everyone else would like me to be. There are a lot of things I don't how to do or be but I do know how to live. There was this quote book that my mom had in her room and I used to flip through with my eyes closed and end on a random page. I found this one from Nadine Stair, and it moved me so much that it was then I decided I wasn't going to live with boundaries. I haven't looked back since.

"If I had my life to live over I'd like to make more mistakes next time. I'd relax. I would limber up. I would be sillier than I have been this trip. I would take fewer things seriously.

I would take more chances. I would climb more mountains and swim more rivers. I would eat more ice cream and less beans. I would perhaps have more actual trouble, but I'd have fewer imaginary ones.

You see, I'm one of those people who live sensibly and sanely hour after hour, day after day. Oh, I've had my moments, and if I had to do it over again, I'd have more of them. In fact, I'd try to have nothing else. Just moments, one after another, instead of living so many years ahead of each day.

I've been one of those persons who never goes anywhere without a thermometer, a hot water bottle, a raincoat, and a parachute. If I had to do it again, I would travel lighter than I have.

If I had my life to live over, I would start barefoot earlier in the spring and stay that way later in the fall. I would go to more dances. I would ride more merry-go-rounds. I'd pick more daisies."
