It is not light that we need, but fire; it is not the gentle shower, but thunder. We need the storm, the whirlwind, and the earthquake.

September 6, 2018 Focus of blog post #! Beyond my control, I do not recognize some parts of myself. The focus of my blog post is mostly mentality and inner-self. The deepest parts I barely visit or acknowledge. Ones, I didn’t know even existed. Some of the most important values, beliefs, and struggles I possess that make me who I am that I had to put a lot of thought into. __1.__What is your idea of perfect happiness?
Being at peace with yourself and various aspects of life including family, health, relationships, socially and financially. __2.__What is your greatest fear? My greatest fear is to lose my mother or to be abducted. __3.__What is the trait you most deplore in yourself? I despise how hard I am on myself or how complicated I am. __4.__What is the trait you most deplore in others? I cannot stand when people aren’t genuine. This would include being untrustworthy, judgemental, racist, sexist, homophobic and more. __5.__Which living person do you most admire? I most admire my 7 year old little brother Weston. __6.__What is your greatest extravagance? Considering how the tradition started, Bonnaroo would be my greatest extravagance. It is a music festival held in Manchester, Tennesse that is like no other. My best friend Maddy and I were both going through very hard times. We felt the only way was out, so two nights before graduation she proposed the idea of leaving and attending this festival. The day of graduation we walked, ate with family, packed, slept for a few hours and left for Bonnaroo. It was such a surreal experience that we decided we’ll make it a tradition. __7.__What is your current state of mind? Frazzeled, I am overwhelmed, anxious and feel sick. __8.__What do you consider the most overrated virtue? Chastity for many reasons. We naturally experience desire. __9.__On what occasion do you lie? Generally, never but to protect someone’s feelings. __10.__What do you most dislike about your appearance? My skin. __11.__Which living person do you most despise? My brothers ex-fiance. __12.__What is the quality you most like in a man? Respect __13.__What is the quality you most like in a woman? Outgoing __14.__Which words or phrases do you most overuse? “Literally” “Brother“What” “Baby” __15.__What or who is the greatest love of your life? My babysitter from when I was younger, Maureen. She is an angel. __16.__When and where were you happiest? UCA Nationals February 2017. When we hit all 3 of our performances perfectly, our coaches were proud, and I was ending my high school cheerleading career the best way. __17.__Which talent would you most like to have? I wish I could sing! __18.__If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? I would change how impatient I can be with people. I sometimes do not take the time to accept actions, ideas or perspectives. __19.__What do you consider your greatest achievement? Being able to get myself together and not let everything consume me. Leading me to making bigger and better decisions and a healthier lifestyle. __20.__If you were to die and come back as a person or a thing, what would it be?
