What About Me?

It seems like re-creating myself is the theme for the day/week/month, so, I figured it was time to retire the previous about me section on Facebook and update it with a more present version of it.  To honor the previous one, I decided to post a blog about it.  I feel that throughout the course of my writing career, I will be re-defined many times by myself and others around me.  Why not honor the previous self every time you climb up the ladder of self-evolution?

About me.... Well, I'm one who is good with words. Perhaps the opinion I have of myself may not be the same opinion others have of me. Frankly, I don't really care. I used to, for a long time in my life. Not any longer. I'm extremely transparent. I wear my heart on my sleeves and I am a big believer in self expression. I care about the world. I hope that my own children will get to see its immeasurable beauty. I am blessed because of my family and friends. I'll do anything for them. I would sell my soul without any proof of purchase so that everyone I love could live happily ever after. I am wise beyond my years, but I know I have a lot more to learn. I aspire to change the world, if not, I hope to inspire at least someone along the way. I like green mangoes with salt, sitting by the water, and sunsets. I love going to sleep to the sound of rain. I like being the last person someone thinks about and I want to smile again at the thought of someone. Slowly but surely, I've started to become whom I always wanted to be. I believe some of the greatest minds in the world have been and are still underrated. I root for the underdog. I learned that forgiveness is the hardest but the most rewarding lesson. I am more beautiful than anyone, including myself, will ever know. I try to make sense of everything, but somethings are just senseless. Despite the lemons life has thrown at me, I think I've made a pretty good lemonade. I don't take anything for granted, and I wouldn't change anything, otherwise I wouldn't be who I am today.


The new updated version will come soon.  This one will continue on its place until I have put all the pieces of the about me puzzle together.
