red lipstick.

While some girls favorite accessory is jewelry, scarves, shoes, purses, etc, etc,
Mine has and will always be my red lipstick.
I know that you're thinking "Red lipstick? Seriously?"
Yes. Red lipstick is my favorite accessory.
Most people could never imagine having such a bright color on their face.
For me, I guess I'd rather stand out than "blend in".
I think that's my philosophy for life as well.
I've never felt like I have had to go along with the crowd.
The past few years have defined my life, I've had ups and downs,
but along the way I found myself. I realized my passions and what I want to accomplish in life.
Will I ever accomplish them all? Probably not.
But at least I can say I have ambition, a drive, a strong grip on my life.
I want to make a difference in this world.
I want to give back to this world that has so richly blessed me.
Most people are content with their life. They get by with the absolute basics.
I never want to get to that point in my life.
I want to live life, never taking a single day for granted.
But most of all my hope and desire is to put my passions into actions.
So, like red lipstick, I want to stand out.
I want to add color to a world that so many times only sees in black and white.
It's so important in this life to find something you are passionate about.
Every day, I hope that I can choose not to blend in.
Red lipstick will always be my reminder to stand out and make a difference.
What's your reminder?
