Visit my birthplace, Honolulu, Hawaii (read all 2 entries…)
this is amazing! 20 months ago

I’m soooo excited to be in Hawaii this very instant! It’s been raining intermittently since we got here yesterday, but it’s still beautiful! I did a little sightseeing tonight, hit a few meetings here, and bought some goodies for friends back home. Tomorrow we’re heading to Waimea Bay and other areas, and the next day Diamond head, Hanauma Bay, and other beautiful areas! I can’t wait to have my breath taken away!!!



Work a job that I love
I love my job(s). 2 years ago

I’m currently a mental health worker at a residential treatment facility for extremely troubled youths. I find it to be very challenging at times, yet also very rewarding. I pray before each day, letting go of the previous day and starting anew. I am there for the children. “What comes from the heart reaches the heart.” I try to be as loving, honest, and firm that I can. When I go home I think about the day and how I can improve the way that I handle situtaions. I feel I am exactly where God wants me to be, considering I attempted to leave several times and then got this job.

Also, in the winter I’m a snowboard instructor. So yes, you can say, that I work a job that I love. =)



Be complete as I am, totally Love and accept myself. (read all 2 entries…)
Acceptance 2 years ago

I’ve come to realize that I have everything that I need within myself. I am complete, I am perfectly imperfect…just the way God created me. Any void that had existed has been filled with the Spirit of God and I find joy in each day I am blessed with the gift of life. One has to be willing to change…to face pain, to face fear, to let go in order to grow and experience true freedom. I am by no means finished growing, but I love and accept myself just the way I am. =)
