How do I describe myself? I describe myself as strong, because I have seemed to scale mountains to get past every obstacle. I describe myself as lucky because I have been in many tricky situations and seem to bypass them in some way. I describe myself as loyal, because when I dedicate myself to something, I try as hard as I can to never lose sight of my goal. I describe myself as unpredictable because I have done things people never expected. I describe myself as a lush because I enjoy that feeling of ecstasy. I describe myself as proud, because I didn't have everything growing up. I had to fend for myself and earn what I wanted, and I feel that the only way you can get something done is to get up and do it. I am a very happy person, and hide tears very well. I'm an optimist, thinking there's a positive to every situation. I am too trusting, believing in people who may have never believed in me. I'm a kind hearted person, willing to give the shirt off my back for someone and go without. My heart is golden, never to completely shatter, but many near falls. I am beautiful. I am smart. And I am a soldier. Don't underestimate me because you don't know me. Do I know me? Not fully, but each day is a step closer to knowing who I really am.
