I have really been doing a lot of soul searching lately trying to reconnect with myself because I have found that somewhere along the way I kind of went into hiding! Some days I feel like I am defined by so many external factors that it is hard to see the real me lost in there somewhere in the shadows! Today I thought I would list the things that are me!
I am:
A child of God.
A daughter, even though my parents are gone.
A sister to 2 earthly siblings and one angel in heaven.
A wife to a man who is difficult to live with. We have been together 17 years and I could tell you some stories!
A mom to the two greatest gifts on earth and two four legged fur babies!
A singer! God has blessed me with a great ability and I am so thankful He did!
A photographer with a passion for capturing life!
A giver! I love to volunteer! Special Olympics, Big Brother/Sisters, St. Judes and Littlest Heros are just a few of the organizations that I have committed my time and talent to!
I am passionate, loving, open (to a fault) and compassionate! If you are crying over something that life has dealt you, I will be the one to listen and cry with you! No one cries alone when I am around! I cry for strangers on the news and at Holiday commercials on TV!
If you need something and it is within my power to give it to you, I will! If you are lonely and need a friend, I am there! This is me! Plain and simple, black and white, this is who I am!

I like this, but you need to add "Lin's pally". :)
I think of you so often, Jo. I truly do. I think you're a beautiful person!
It is good to review a list like that. Thanks for sharing yours. You have me thinking now about my list. FWIW, in the short time that I've known you, I've come to realize you are more complex than that list would indicate.
