I’m almost 21; I usually like people but sometimes I don’t. Somedays I could spin in circles with my arms open wide and proclaim my love for humanity and other days I feel like living under a rock because I absolutely hate it.

I have a tendency to sway to extremes (ecstatically happy or so low I’d rather not exist) but I generally hang out around melancholy and I’m happy there.

I was a hardcore black and white conservative in a past life and now I’m (hopefully) finding center. At this moment in time* I’d describe myself as a moderate left leaning libertarian (ha).

I’m learning that people are complicated and intricate and can not be packed into boxes. I rebel against boxes.

I want to be the eccentric 60 year old with sapphire hair and kind eyes. When I’m 50 I want to not care – I want to be me; I will learn life’s lessons and love freely. I want to be a vibrant 30 and 40 year old living adventurously.

I want to be a graceful 20 something who makes people feel at ease and accepts everyone for themselves.

I’ll be the woman with the sapphire hair who’s lead an amazing and full life – who’s success does not depend on the amount of children she bore, but the love she showed to everyone. I will be creative, kind, graceful, and calm. I’ll be the woman with the sapphire hair and kind eyes.

*anything and everything is subject to change as I evolve, and this is why I’ll never be elected.
