i may be bad, but i'm perfectly good at it.

things happen to me that don't happen to anyone else. I swear every move that I make it's like I am suppose to be learning lessons from it all. I feel like some people wander around this world with out ever learning a life lesson, but me?! I learn like 3 or more a week. serious.
Want to hear my most recent one? Well, actually I will share with you two..

Life lesson number one: finding out that AGE DOESN'T MATTER.
Age is just a number, just like a name is just a name.. it doesn't define who you are at all. I have three personal examples to use for this:
Example one: If you give your baby the love and attention it deserves, if you provide for all his/her physical needs, If you are there for them emotionally, and provide them with warm welcoming environment to grow up in...then it doesn't matter what ethnicity you are, what religion you are, what your occupation is, or WHAT YOUR AGE IS.
Example two: I am 19, Live on my own, drive my own car, pay my own bills, take my daughter to daycare, buy groceries, go to school 48+ hours a week, clean my house, cook breakfast and dinner, maintain a long distance relationship with my 2 best friends, am a full time mother to a 21 month old, I recently met my biological father after 18 years of not knowing his name, my parents got married when I was 5, I have two younger brothers I struggle to get a long with, I have lost best friends, I have had my heart broken by someone I really really cared about, I graduated high school,  etc.... honestly, most of those things that I listed someone in there upper 20's have not done, and some of it.. some people will never experience in there whole life. I have had more things happen in my short 19 years of life, then most people twice my age. Don't judge till you know, and age is not a measure of wisdom.

Don't let the number that your age says you are deter you from the things that you want to accomplish in your life. There is no better time then the present. Live your life.


I am going off on a limb now.. I just want to touch on the subject of accepting people for who they are on the inside not on the outside. Right now, answer the question "Who is the most beautiful person that you know?" Now list the reasons why they are beautiful. More then Likely you listed reasons that had NOTHING to do with what there face or body looked like. You listed reasons like, they make me laugh, they help out anyone that needs it, they are always there for me, they are never negative, they showed me what love really is, they are caring, and sweet, and take care of people in need.
Now, I don't want to offend anyone.. or for anyone to take this the wrong way.. but think about someone that is Gay. There is a good chance that you can't even think of someone you are close to that is Gay, because we live in North Dakota.. which is basically a little bubble of perfectness, but we won't talk about that... Since I have started school in September I have met one of the most beautiful people that I know and to be honest, I would NEVER have talked to them if I was not forced to because of school. I would have been shallow, and though eww gross, and wow, I could never have anything in common with someone like that, they must be really weird. WHY?! A gay person is still a person! It doesn't matter there sexual orientation, what does it matter to me what sex people are attracted to? that is there own business, not mine or anyone's for that matter. This person that I have gotten close to at school is my biggest mentor ever, I look up to him and respect him so much, he is a brilliant cosmetologist but even a more brilliant person from the inside out. He is caring a sweet and compassionate. He is always there for you, always ready to help, and can always make you laugh. He is one of my hero's and I owe a ton of thanks to him because he has helped me out with so much in such a short period of time. Now, think.. I would never have gotten to know him if I let other peoples stereotypes clog my vision of who he truly  was on the inside. How many times has your vision been clogged by what other people have said causing you to miss out on meeting someone that will change your life?
..I am not talking about just Gay people either, I am talking about different races, different religions, different family backgrounds, different weights, different hair color.. just because someone is different then you doesn't mean they aren't beautiful...

"If you woke up in the morning with everything that you thanked God for the night before, what would you have? "

I heard this at school a week ago, and I have NOT stopped thinking about it. It's really deep and makes you think... think about it...

Who are you?

When you read that question you may think that the answer is simple. I am Jessica Makeeff or I am Ann Smith. But really? your name, a name that hundreds of other people have is WHO you are? So, for instance my mother wanted to name me Mersadies (Thank God she didn't), if I was born into this world named Mersadies instead of Jessica would I have still been the person that I am today? Because for those of you that answered the question "who are you?" with your name are saying that.  Makes you think right?
Everyone is on this earth for a reason. So it is up to you to answer the question "who are you?" with a more thought-about answer then Jessica Makeeff. I personally, am not wise enough and have not been enlightened enough to know who I am yet. I know that I am a mom, a daughter, a student, an adult. I know that I am caring, smart, strong, funny, and stuborn. I know that I was born March 8th and that I am 19 years old. But is that who I am? All those adjectives? No. I don't want to be. I want to be who I was born to be. I was born to help people. I honestly believe that everything that has happened in my life has happened for me to know that I need to help others so the same things don't happen to them. (yes, I am talking about getting pregnant at 16, but no I am not saying that I regret it) Life is about creating who are. Life is about expanding your horizons,  and stepping out of the box. if you don't ever question who you are, you are never going to answer the question "who are you" with anything other then Jessica Makeeff.


I read something once. It went like this:
A mother father and two year old son were eating breakfast at the table. The mother gets up and goes to the sink. While her back is turned Dad, starts floating about the table. The two year old son exclaims "Dad flies! Cool" and smiles. The son was genuinely astonished by the father floating above the table, but he is also astonished cars, bouncing balls, the bathtub. Everything, because the son has not yet learned what is "normal" (I use that word loosely) and what is completely strange and not an every day occurrence, like Dad floating.
Mom turns around from the sink and sees dad floating. She screams, starts crying, and has a panic attack. She doesn't know what to do. She knows you are not suppose to fly. Because she was taught "men do not fly" So for her to see her husband floating above the table she knew something was wrong. She didn't think that it was cool, or anything of the sort. She knew it was wrong. Because she was TOLD men do not fly. Now, we know that men don't fly.. but why do we know that? cause we were taught it. Just like we were taught about math, english, and the geography of the world.
Sometimes, I think that everyone needs to be that little two year old boy. Just because you were told that something is the way that it is... Why should you believe them? I understand learning from other peoples expiriences can help you not make the same mistakes that they made or follow in the footsteps to great success. But sometimes I think that it is best to look at the world with an unfiltered mind. To let go and be gratefull for everything. To answer "who are you?" While still understanding just because someone told you this is what is going to happen -- doesn't mean that it is going to happen that way... You can do anything that you set your mid to. Break lifes rules, and then in turn other people will question what they were so sure about...




This was kind of a random post. Just whats on my mind right now.. xoox
