Not This One

I wish I could go as far as to say that I am a well- known historic superhero, or an individual that boasts telepathic powers and the ability to influence a physical system without physical interaction; although, I must admit, those powers are beyond me. Although Leo's are considered to be fiery and dominating, I often find myself timidly passionate when tackling life.
I come from a small town outside of the city; a town that everyone seems to despise, yet everyone seems to adore at the same time-- A town where football lights and backroads are admired, high school sports are not only encouraged but inordinately worshiped, and hanging out in the gas station parking lot becomes entirely habitual. Half of my day would be spent at school, while the other half comprised of blasting loud music and driving around this so called town, simply because there was nothing better to do. On some days (my lucky days), however, I would spend nothing short of five hours dancing-- my most consistent passion since the age of three.

Eighteen years later and this is my only authentic passion that still exists.

As does everybody, I have been shaped since my birth to the point where I am today. I haven't always had good times: schools, divorce, injuries, heartbreak, and so on.. nonetheless, I have prevailed through. I trudged through the mud, and I can finally see the pasture that I had seen glimpses of for years. I'm excited to be entering into this new environment, into this period of discovery in my life.
I recently graduated college with a degree in Interpersonal Communications, and am continuing a degree to become a health coach; yet, sharing this stuff seems overbearingly average and boring. In that case, let me try to tell you something more interesting than my regulated schooling system, an area so frequently overrated.

A very special person in my life constantly reminds me that I have a tendency to forget myself in order to fulfill others' needs. One of my biggest strengths, as well as one of my biggest weaknesses. Between trying to help me learn to take care of myself, while encouraging me to be myself, I am slowly making progress. For example, he is helping me with this post simply because I am shy and a little nervous about posting. I haven't had much time to explore my life, being tied up into schooling and jobs hasn't left much time for self-discovery.
This post is titled meet Jean Gray, but the truth of it all, is that I am still meeting Jean Gray.

That's only a small summary of myself, but in time, I'm sure anybody that would like to know more, will learn as time goes on. I'm excited to start this journey-- thanks for reading! :)
