Tears and laughter, I reminisce
Of times we shared and said goodbye
We’d hug and kiss then turn to cry
Good times, bad times, marital bliss
Life together I truly miss
Leaves from trees falling like the rain
Sounds of darkness to hide my pain
Til death do us part, so we said
Imagining good times ahead
Now just my thoughts of you remain

You know, writing about myself has always been a challenge. It's not that I'm unsure of who I am but rather I like people to discover me on their own. I will tell you this much - I'M REAL! I guess that's all you need to know for a first approach; stick around and you'll understand the power behind that statement. What I do is another story! I embrace life hoping to live my purpose as a mother, daughter, sister, confidante and friend; I laugh, cry, and support; I admire, like and love; I listen, read and write. Most importantly, I have faith and thank God for all of me. My intent is to inspire others using my gifts and "Don't Forget the Half" reminds me to cast nothing aside. Want to know more? Discover along with me as I live my life out loud.

Nicely done. Honest. Allows the reader to connect. Awesome, but not so much that you have such a story to tell.
