**Official Statement**
"We have not given enough of self until we have given all of self, and then it must be for a cause greater than self."
All my life I have been a woman of expression, through drawing, singing, dancing and any other form of expression I could find. I love to write and create and when I can combine the two it is even better. And so I learned to turn my imagination in to pictures and my daydreams into stories. I find great joy in helping people find their creative niches as well. I have come to fully believe that We can not control the hand we are dealt in the game of life, but we can and do very much control how and with whom it is played out. The ultimate choice is up to the individual to make daily decisions of cause and effect that shape the very fabric of our lives and our well being in general. We have the individual right and the ability to choose to be happy or sad, good or bad, no matter what the situation is that we face. As Paul said, I have learned to be happy and content no matter the state I find myself in. I make the choice to maintain my peace even in the mist of the storms of life. Remaining constant, unmovable and always abiding in the faith I hold dear in my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.And through him, I am more than a conquer, I am an overcomer.
