I am from the mountains are calling and I must go.
I am from saltwater heals everything. (Even the deepest of wounds)
I am from the Evergreen State, where the 12th Man is strong.
I am from running ‘til my legs won’t move another inch.
I am from blue and yellow represent.
I am from clock 3rd best time in district, working toward 1st.
I am from a diverse world with places I love to visit.
I am from the city life of New York. The laid back life of Hawaii.
I am from the beautiful land of Alaska. The sunsets on the boardwalk in Seaside, Oregon.
I am from inside jokes galore.
I am from the laughing and fun of going to Wild Waves with the crew.
I am from the happiness of living my life to the fullest. Living out of being loved by God.
I love this. A joy for life…. I see God smiling and rejoicing at this.
