no guarantees

we make promises in life, all of us do it. some of us stand by those promises even if it's to a bitter end. our hope is that when someone makes a promise to us they will cling to it, but it doesn't always happen that way.

mary might be having a hard year, maybe even a hard several years but her ability to rise above and realize there are no guarantees in this life make her different. ask her how she's doing and she will say she's great. ask her about the hard stuff and she will point to the bright parts within. three of those bright spots are holly, tj, and jake. her love for them pulls her outside herself. she gets up everyday knowing that three people depend on her to be the best person she can and to not take herself to seriously. that doesn't mean she that she doesn't struggle with self doubt, insecurities, and even anger. it just means she refuses to be a victim. and at the end of the day she encourages a whole fleet of people, without even knowing it.

























yup- it sure is jake's shoe hitting holly in the face- see, no guarentees
