I’m starting to change my outlook on life. Life has so many twists and turns and while sometimes things don’t turn out the way we want them to, there is always something good that comes out of every situation. Humor has really saved my life. While some things seem so tragic and so life-ending, there is always humor in everything. I may have a bit of a morbid sense of humor but if I didn’t, I don’t know how I would have ended up being such a happy person after dealing with everything I have. Life isn’t going to be easy forever, and I realized that very quickly during my childhood. Things never seemed to go my way and everything was constantly changing and completely unstable. The only way I knew how to deal with all the tragedy and pain around me was by laughing at it. I used to make jokes about my mother and about our family. I would talk about the sad things and turn them into something I could make fun of.

Having hope for the future has always been a major life saver for me. Without looking ahead, I would have probably gotten lost in everything that was going on around me. My favorite saying is, “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” and I am a firm believer in that. Everything in life adds to a piece of your experience and without all of those experiences you’ve had, whether good or bad, you wouldn’t be who you are today.
