I.

I am not a liberal, or a conservative.
I do not like being labeled.
I have strengths and weaknesses that I easily admit to.
I rarely share my opinion and I never assume my opinion is higher than anyone else's.
I dislike when people have to prove they are better than others.
I believe we are all equal and no one should be treated better than anyone else.
I respect authority only when it respects me.
I believe in God the father.
I believe Jesus is my savior.
I believe that I was put on Earth to be meek and humble, and full of God's grace.
I do not think I have the right to expect that of anyone else.
I do not think anyone else has the right to expect any more of me.
I am easily intimidated.
I am what I am.
I am simply me.
I am nothing more, and nothing less.
I do not have layers, what you see is what you get.
I don't understand why I jump through hoops for so many others, yet very few do it for me.
I have made peace with all my past mistakes.
I have forgiven all who have hurt me.
I walk on eggshells so that I never hurt anyone again.
I don't always win.
I am not perfect.
I acknowledge that I am not perfect.
I love fully and deeply, but sometimes with caution.
I dream many dreams and wish many wishes.
I know my limitations and accept them.
I push myself too hard sometimes.
I can be very lazy sometimes.
I am not naive.
I have a past full of mistakes and letdowns.
I am grateful for those mistakes and letdowns because they led me here.
I am happy in the here and now.
I do not believe living for the here and now is settling.
I don't need anything more than what I have now.
I don't need to constantly wish for more.
I do not have what if's and should've/could've's.
I am not an open book, but I will let you in.
I do not trust many people, but I trust those I've let in.
I like to make people happy.
I like to be happy.
I don't like doing things that don't have a meaning.
I need to be purposeful in my actions.
I am a proactive person.
I am not destructive in my actions.
I am strong of mind.
I am strong of soul.
I am weak of body.
I love chaos.
I need noise.
I choose to be messy and nonsensical.
I crave creativity in all mediums.
I enjoy surrounding myself with creative people.
I feel music as if it were tangible.
I see written word as if it were a movie.
I can daydream an entire novel, and then forget every word when I try to write it down.
I can be in two places at once.
I can multitask 20 things at the same time.
I can have 8 arms.
I can do anything I put my mind to.
I am a mother, a wife, a daughter, a sister, an aunt, a friend, an artist, a writer, a leader, a follower, a student, a teacher.
I contradict myself.
I am just me.
I am nothing more.
I am nothing less.
