Hope

We all must live our lives always feeling, always thinking the moment has arrived. ~ Tracy Chapman

Beautiful words of wisdom from my favorite artist.

Ambition seems to be the key word theses days, be ambitious to go to school, finish the race, find success, etc, it is always the same and it makes me feel like a robot. Stress is what comes to mind when I hear that term. The world we live in has become so pessimistic, however finding your own ambition, now thats different, it's the key to life.

I am 23 years old, a college graduate, and struggling to find a job in this economy like so many others. I left home and started my adventure when I was 18 years old and never looked back. When I was 20, I moved to Yellowstone National Park for the summer and continued to grow and see that there was more to life than I could possibly image. Fear has never been an obstacle of mine, trying to find the good in everything I do or see, is my only goal. Yes, I am broke, and hoping a job opportunity knocks soon, but I have never been so happy in my 23 years of life, and to me that is all that matters.

Hope is a very strong word, or state of mind that our generation lacks. There is hope in everything we do, and I strongly believe that. My life isn't perfect but when you put my family, friends and Jacob Malarik, in the picture it all forms a circle of perfection making every from of hope come true.

It is 2013, I have hope, my own kind of ambition, and a life that is just beginning. :)
