MY LIFE IN PICTURES

I am a product

A product of life experiences

My funniest moments

Things I love

And live for

I’ve set my own journey

My travels have taught my lessons

Everywhere I’ve been

Everything I do

My life inspires me

What I’ve accomplished New things I’ve done

How to love myself

And who I’m becoming

My accomplishments

Are never a mistake

I live by

All the concerts I’ve been to

All my friends

All the new places I go

Everyone new I meet

All greater than my failure

I live in my photographs

All my memories

All my accomplishments

Showing cattle and being with them past dark

Taught me to be who I am

Where I learned loyalty, persistence,

Love, teamwork

The meaning I bring to myself

The late-night drives back after an away game we won

The stories I have to tell

All the friends I made

All the new people I met

I remind myself of these memories as I become a grown woman

All my good times overgrow the bad

Everything i taught myself

The strong independent woman I’m becoming

Very different from before

Yet all the same

All my life lessons

I am a product

Of my own success
