Don't Worry, Be Happy

I was always green with envy about people who were born with a silver spoon inside his or her mouth. My parents were not made of money. My dad was the only one to bring home the bacon so he often told us that money does not grow on trees. They raised me with a few simple ideals that I live by. Ever since I was a little kid, I always gave whatever I did 110 percent. I may not be the sharpest crayon in the box but I believe that hard work does pay off in the end. I always reached for the moon so even if I didn’t make it, I’d still land on the stars. I think it is never too late to learn new things. I am wishing upon a star that I can make something of myself and do great things in the future. Although there is still a long road ahead, I will just take it one day at a time. I will cross each bridge when I come to it. Even though I live in San Diego now, I’d like to think that the acorn doesn’t fall far from the tree. I still have my parents’ voices inside my head even when they are not around. My mom always tells me that a way to a man’s heart is through is stomach which is something that I must learn how to do. I can’t wait to be swept off my feet by my knight in shining armor. All in due time, I will be able to tie the knot with someone I am head over heels about. A good man is hard to find but there are plenty of fish in the sea. I know that everything happens for a reason. Even when bad things happen, I know that with every dark cloud, there is a silver lining. I think it is best to always look on the bright side and stay positive.
