me...june 2008My name is Tiffanie. I tend to keep to myself, but I am not shy. I am more outgoing than I ever was while growing up, and I sometimes love to be the center of attention, even in a group of strangers. I adore my husband, family, and friends more than anything in the entire world, and I would do anything for them. I get along better with males than I do females. I rely on people too much, sometimes…but I also put on a front of being 100% independent. I wear my heart on my sleeve and rely on actions more than words, and emotions more than common sense. I crave attention and compliments more than I would like to admit to myself. I’m a dreamer. I love to laugh and am not afraid to cry. I’m no longer a little girl, but I love to reminisce about my childhood. I’m a wife. I’m a sister. I’m a daughter and I’m a friend. I sometimes care too much for my own good. I’m funny. I’m sarcastic. I’m flirty. I don’t have all the answers and sometimes I feel like life is moving on without me. I am forcing myself to run along with it and live it to the fullest of my ability.

And it was at that time that I thought about Thomas Jefferson writing that Declaration of Independence. Him saying that we have the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. And I thought about how he knew to put the ‘pursuit’ in there, like no one can actually have happiness. We can only pursue it. (from “The Pursuit of Happyness”)
