When I Think of Life.

When I think of life, and how I'm living it, where I'm heading, it scares me to death. I never know what my actions or words towards someone will effect me- or them in the long run. It scares me to just be traveling along this long narrow path of life not seeing what lies ahead. I have dreams of what I want to happen, and fears of what might happen. When I look back five years ago and think of all that I went through, I never though or even dreamed I would end up here the way I am. I would be much worse, I would be lost, broken (in spirit) and probably hurt to say the least. I am so blessed to have been brought through the trials I went through, because they have shaped me into the woman of God that I am today. With my testimony I am able to reach out to people who have had similar issues that I had, and we can understand each other on a level we wouldn't have been able to if I hadn't. I write this so you as my reader can understand me on a deeper level as well. I don't know what I'm doing in life, other than just allowing God to drive and me to just go along for the ride and see what happens next.

All my love, Miss Mae

Sweetest Italian Girl I Know.


My most inspiring friend, Sweetest Italian Girl I Know never ceases to amaze me. She would give you the shirt off her back if she needed to. You're probably wondering "Miss Mae, why are you telling me this when I don't even know this Sweet Italian Girl?" Well, let me tell you a brief history about SIGIK. ( I hope you caught on to the acronym)

SIGIK is the youngest of her family, a huge Italian family. and recently her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. She just started her chemo treatment and has started losing her hair. She decided to go ahead and shave all her hair off and wear adorable head scarves and hats. SIGIK, being the ever-so-sensitive sweet 17 year old that she is, shaved hers too. I love my mother dearly, really I do, I'd die for her, but I just don't know if I'd shave my head for her. My sweet friend however, did it without hesitation. It was even her idea, and I am so proud to count her as one of my best friends. We need more people like her in this selfish world we live in. She really shows me what selflessness truly is, and I am SO thankful for a friend like her. Please keep her and her family in your prayers. :]
