Other things may change us, but we start and end with family.

I guess I never realized how lucky I am to have a family that loves me. I probably have the best parents anyone could ask for. I have people all around me that care about me and would do just about anything in the world for me. Not only do I have my family that I trust with all my heart, I have Zach's. I love his parents so much, they really are my home away from home. I think I realized that this Thanksgiving. When I walk in the door with Zach they all hug me and say how happy they are to see me again. It feels so good to be accepted. I have no clue what in the world I would do if Zach's parents didn't like me. His Dad and step mom, Tammy, really are my second parents. I spend so much time with them and I feel so comfortable over there. You know how most of the time you don't speak much to your boyfriend's parents? You just kind of lay low and don't say a whole lot? Its the complete opposite. I talk to Tammy and Ricky about everything, we joke and laugh and have a great time. Even Zach's hunting friends are like family to me. Allen Sikes is also like another Dad. I was talking to him on the phone one night and when we were hanging up he said "love you". And like always I said, "Love you too Mr. Allen". When my mom asked me if he was drunk, and I told her "no, he always tells me he loves me"?.. I realized it was abnormal to fit in so well. Having people that support and allow you to date makes the relationship so much easier. They are probably a big chunk of the reason me and Zach get along so well :)

Live For You

 Well, everyone else is doing this blog thing so I figured I'd give it a shot. I'm not much for really expressing my feelings and telling people whats really going on, so I guess we'll see how this goes. I very rarely open up to anyone, and I sure don't like to sit there and talk about my problems. I really think crying infront of people makes you look like the biggest wimp in the world, I just don't do it, well I don't try to. I don't really get upset that often, I really don't have a reason to. I have a great life and I'm pretty much always happy. I hear people talking about how bad their days are and how they just cant wait to get away. I don't see it. Maybe i'm missing something here? Or maybe people are just too sensitive. Why let one persons action or comment ruin your day? WHO CARES! My mom tells me this all the time, (I'm starting to see that this lady is right more and more), if your happy with yourself and you like who you are, who cares what other people think. Live for yourself, not someone else. Be happy and don't let anyone else bring you down. Keep your head high, and always have self confidence. Just Be Happy!
