If we had coffee...

So many good conversations can happen over a cup of coffee (or tea...or anything, really).
It got me thinking...if I were to be put in a room with a perfect stranger, and a good cup of Joe...what would they find out about me?


They would find out I really am not a big "coffee person", I prefer sweet tea, or mountain dew. I'm a big risk taker, an adrenaline junkie. When I'm behind my camera, I feel inspired by anything and everything around me. The world is so beautiful through my viewfinder. They would find out I love my husband with all my heart, but I love my God more, and I'm happy to say that my husband would say the same about me. I sadly am on my phone too much, and its a daily chore of mine to remind myself to let it go. I'd much prefer getting a handwritten letter once a month, than a text every day. Polka dots and glitter make me happy. Dolphins are my favorite animal, and yellow would always be my color of choice. They would learn that my parents split up when I was 9 years old, but that it made me into who I am today. I've faced hardships and loss, but have grown from every heartache by choosing to find the silver lining. I'm a chick flick and Disney movie gal but could watch any given action movie on repeat all night. Breakfast on a Saturday is my jam and french toast is acceptable no matter the time of day. I'm a lover, and care about my relationships with others like crazy. They would find out I over analyze every single aspect of my life, and its a constant battle I have with myself. I'm learning to be less sensitive, and to not take everything so personally. I love fresh fruit with marshmallow cream, and could eat sweets all day. They would find out I sing really loud when I'm alone, and bust out in random dance moves in my cubicle (yes, it happens more than you'd think). I compare myself to others all too often, only to remind myself, again, that I'm beautiful just how I was made.

Overall, I'd like to think I would be viewed as a really happy girl. A girl who loves life and the silly things that fill her day. A girl who has her crap together, but knows its okay to ask for help when she needs it. A girl who radiates God's love on a daily basis, even when she wonders if SHE alone could make a difference. One who is quick to rejoice and slow to anger, one who is happy for others accomplishments in life.
A girl who has her moments, her insecurities, her quirks, and that it all adds up to make her, her.

How are you viewing yourself today? I hope its positive. :)
