I love being able to just stare at the sky and know that I make the choices in my life no matter the outcome. That I can persevere through all life's challenges with cool head and understand that age has given me the opportunity to learn and grow and become a mentor to those who may not always live life with a glass half full. I strive to fulfill the dreams I wrote down for myself when I was just a young child of 9 years, following a purpose of wants and desires. I am aging gracefully.
How do you stay fabulous?Fabulous to me means to be honest with oneself and to live with the personality I was born with. I strive to accept new challenges and to constantly learn every day. I am humble, kind and giving, fair and fabulous. I look for the best in people and under no circumstances would I ever judge anyone. You never know what is going on behind someone's front door. I love to drive and consol my internal self with positive feedback. This is the peace I live with to be fabulous over 40.
What would you do with the $40,000?I would be in disbelief at first, then overwhelmingly thankful that I was chosen to win the $40,000. I would use the $40,000 to slide closer to my retirement dreams and buy my first fixer upper in New Mexico, USA to fulfill the dream of moving to the desert, to complete with my own hands, and to teach English and Art to children less fortunate in the area. To fully learn Spanish by immersing myself in the culture and to travel the area, enjoying all the beauty the desert hides.
