Feb. 18-24

My favorite quote for sure is “who you are inside is what makes you a star”.  A very special little girl once said that. Her name was Shiloh Peppin. That little girl gave me hope and faith in myself. She was born with her legs fused together, a birth defect to where they say you will only live for a few days. Shiloh lived for ten and a half years. That’s impressive. That little girl changed my life forever. Before I heard about her, I was headed straight for failure. Mostly because I let people tear me down, because I was ashamed of whom I was. I hated myself.  But when I watched the video on her life, my eyes were opened wide.
Think about it, who you are inside…that is all that really matters, it twenty years it is not going to matter what shoes you wore, or how your hair looked. What’s going to matter is if you are happy with the person you were, and are today.  I am very happy I came across that video, and that little girls story.  Because without her, I wouldn’t love the person I am today.
