Love what you do, be who you are....

I recently started reading Crush It! by Gary Vaynerchuk, and man I got to tell it has gotten me fired up! It talks alot about leading with your passions in life, whether that be worms(his illustration:)) or feeding the hungry. We were all designed for something, something unique, something amazing!! I know in my own life I have found things that always stick out to me. The biggest is HELP. Helping others reach their goals, dream big, love deep, feel fufilled. I have also always had a passion for color/art and finding beauty in the mundane. I mean every since I was little I have been painting, redesigning and creating. I love change, love it!! I love seeing change in people's lives, and I love seeing change in our surroundings. So lately I have been praying alot about what this all means to me, how I can make sure that in my life I never give up these passions. But instead use them evey day, as my job, as my day to day. So watch out cause here I come, and I won't give up till I reach my goals. :)
We are all made for different things, I mean I would make a terrible Deputy like my hubby. I would probably be in the fetal position in most circumstances, just not my cup of tea!! And I am cool with that.
God is the ultimate creator, he made us unique for a reason.....we just need  to accept it and embrace it!!

All my life I had been looking for something, and everywhere I turned someone tried to tell me what it was.  I accepted their answers too, though they were often in contradiction and even self-contradictory.  I was naïve.  I was looking for myself and asking everyone except myself questions which I, and only I, could answer.  It took me a long time and much painful boomeranging of my expectations to achieve a realization everyone else appears to have been born with:  that I am nobody but myself.  ~Ralph Ellison
