I am outgoing and fun loving, definitely a "type A" personality. I have a hunger for life and thirst for knowledge that can't be satisfied by mundane every day nonsense. I crave challenge and change, yet need to keep some things stable and the same.
I believe that we are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves. If what we are now has been the result of our own past actions, it certainly follows that whatever we wish to be in future can be produced by our present actions; so we have to know how to act.
HOWEVER....I also feel that if you waste your life by not living it then your are living a tragic lifestyle. Never forget to have fun, too laugh too much, and too LOVE with all that you are, no matter how many times you've been hurt. Be passionate, and spontaneous, never worry about having too much fun worry about not having enough!
MY LIFE....Is a very fine balance of Family, Work, and Play and I love every minute of it. I truly believe in "No regrets" and live my life knowing that no matter what happens today, whether it is good or bad, that tomorrow is another day, a new day with new beginnings, new people, and new things to see and do. So I wake up every day ready to live my life to the fullest.
FOUR words that truly describe me PASSIONATE, HONEST, UNIQUE, and INTENSE. Any one who REALLY takes the time to know me understands those four words completely.

Hey there world of bloggers!
To tell you a little about myself, I am 30 years old and this year, I am living on the island of Oahu. I have moved around a lot and have seen so many amazing places and met so many amazing people. It's kind of crazy but sometimes I feel like I have lived a million life times and at other times I feel like I have really just begun to live and experience life. I guess, in some ways, that both feelings are true.
So anyway, today I am going to post something that I wrote a while back. This is something that I re-read all the time as a reminder of of who I am and the reason for the roads I have traveled. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
At the Crossroad
We all eventually come to points in our life where we have to make the kinds of decisions that can and will change life as you know it forever. I think that this usually only happens to some people once or twice in a lifetime. For others it happens over and over again. How do you know which way to go! As those roads intersect some times your choices are clear and sometimes all directions are unclear. Now I firmly believe in "No Regrets", but also sometimes often wonder how things on a different path might have been. I mean that is only human nature. As these last years have brought with them so much change, I have constantly found my self standing at the cross road trying to decide which way to go. I sometimes stand and review my choices and think them through as much as possible, and at other times I find my self making reckless decisions. Either way I always try to remember that who you are stems from who you where. So I look back and I remember, I remember my life page by page, chapter by chapter and book by book, and I smile. I smile because I realize that my story is a long one filled with trials and tribulations, filled with love and hurt, filled with all of the people that have helped write my story. I smile because I realize that I carry with me secrets of life that some people will never know. I smile because I realize that only the people that are unafraid to live life and experience it will find them selves time and time again at the Cross Road, and that only those who can tread on the roads riddled with pain will ever really understand why it is necessary. I smile because I know that if you don't take a chance and walk the road less traveled some times, then your life will be filled with the mundane, and that is a fate I could never stand. So the next time that you find yourself at a cross road remember that although some roads look less traveled and a little harder to walk be brave stand tall and know that sometimes the best things in life are achieved through hard work, passion and perseverance.
