Theresa

hey everyone. my name's theresa. i've had many blogs in my life but i'm trying something new. writing is my therapy, it helps me deal with the things i can't talk about, the things i'm afraid to talk about. i was never really good at opening up & letting people in because of things that have happened, so this is my way of showing who i am. i like to think i'm a good person. i've dealt with a lot growing up and it has shaped me into the person i am. i've been in a stand still place in life these past couple of years trying to find myself, or rather the me that i lost. things have been hard lately, harder than i could have anticipated. i guess that's what happens when you let wounds build up & turn to scars. i guess the most i can say is that i am trying, trying to find my place in this world, trying to find what's out there for me. i deal with the cards i've been dealt and i try my best to live my life, because living in anything but the present is not living at all. i have good friends that make life easier and i am more grateful to them then they could even possibly imagine, and i have an awesome brother who is my best friend and the only thing that helps me tolerate the things that go on with my family. i have a job that i love, but will soon be losing thanks to the election but i guess that's the gamble i took getting into the world of politics. i hope in starting this, people can begin to understand me more, to understand why i am the way i am, and to really grasp the concepts that float through my mind on a day to day basis. enjoy :].
