Speak Your Mind


The more important things...

The Future. With a capital F because it's something important to me.

A job. Because I need to be able to provide for my future family.

My future husband. Because I need him to make my future family.

My Goals. With a capital G because it's not an option not to achive them.

 

The less important things...

Why do I shed my hair everywhere?

Why do I never listen when my parents say don't eat in your room because ants will come?

Why can't North Carolina make up it's mind about the weather?

Why don't  I write poems more?

 

The most important thing...

What will I do once I achieve all my dreams?
