"The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong in the broken places."
This quote, written by Ernest Hemingway, in A Farewell to Arms, best describes me. I am a person that the world has broken in many places at many different times, but I have risen from these challenges stronger because of them.
“A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.”
- Winston Churchill
I am a proponent of "the glass half-full", chosing to see the world through rose-colored glasses instead of dirty dishwater. This unbridled optimism has often led me down paths I'd rather not have traveled. But I think it is better to be hopeful and hurt instead of pessimistic and unscathed.
"Whatever else is unsure in this stinking dunghill of a world a mother's love is not."
- James Joyce
Motherhood seems to be something I excel in. I have a tendency to adopt and mother all I come in contact with. I consider my compassion for others to be one of my best qualities. There are times when I don't think my heart is big enough for all the love it contains for everyone in my life as well as the world.
"Without our stories we would be nothing."
-Neil Gaiman
To say that I am a writer would be stating the obvious. Words have huge significance in my life. I use them to tell my stories and to communicate to others. I revel in the feeling of certain words rolling off my tongue. I can climb into a prolific novel and wallow, never tiring of the prose. My greatest dream is to be a published author.
Please forgive me for borrowing the word of others to express the feelings I possess. Sometimes someone else has said it first and better than you ever could.
