Hi! I'm Claire, and I'm about to tell you a little about what makes me who I am. I have the most wonderful family in the world. I adore my parents and brothers-in-law, but I wouldn't be who I am if it weren't for my sisters. They're two of my best friends and biggest supporters. Being an aunt is one of the best things in my life and I love my niece and nephews more than anything.
God has blessed me so much in my life with my family, my wonderful friends, and circumstances in general. I grew up on a farm, was homeschooled, and I'm currently taking a break from school after two years of college.
My life isn't perfect- no one has a perfect life- but I've just recently begun to see past my problems to how wonderful it really is. I'm the child of a recovering alcoholic, and I wouldn't have it any other way. There's something so powerfully amazing about finding a support group, people who share the same problems and encouraging each other to live life to the fullest in spite of them. Yes, I have been through pain, but everything changes and I'm thankful for the opportunities I've been given.
Music is an enormous part of who I am. My life has a soundtrack no matter what is going on- when I'm sad, happy, angry, depressed, or anything else. A good concert can put me in a good mood for weeks, and if silence lasts too long I don't know what to do with myself. I guess you could say I'm addicted.
I REALLY love animals and I have two dogs named Nikita and Louie. Nikita is a Husky, three years old and calm as can be, and Louie is a Corgi mix with enough exuberance for both of them. I love them both a whole lot, but the main reason I love animals was named Penny- a German Shepherd-Chow mix with the sweetest personality you can possibly imagine..seriously. She knew when I was sad and comforted me and she rescued baby animals and brought them to us safe and unharmed. She was wonderful, and I might only believe that animals go to Heaven because I can't imagine a perfect place without her.
Personality profiles interest me, and according to the Meyers-Briggs Type Indicator, I'm an INFJ- Introverted, Intuitive, Feeling, Judging. Although I'm an introvert, I don't like being alone. I energize off of activities rather than people, but I need to be with the right people while I do my thing. And although I'm logical, I'm a part-time dreamer. My favorite movie is Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland and my favorite book is At the Back of the North Wind by George MacDonald. I find such a deep, personal meaning in the uniqueness of those stories. I need music in my life because it brings out my emotional side and makes me feel so perfectly understood.
I believe that there is good in all circumstances, but it's sometimes impossible to see while we're in the middle of them. God is the person Who walks me through difficult times, Who lets me appreciate life and have a positive attitude. I believe that God's will is better for me than my own could ever be. He knows what's best. He knows my faults, He knows my strengths, He knows me better than I do because He made me. Don't get me wrong, I am not perfect by any stretch of the imagination. I do things I shouldn't all the time. I make mistakes. I go through times when I don't pray at all, but when I begin to pray again, I realize just now much better life is when I depend on God. I'm naturally a selfish person, but I believe that life is better when it's lived for others, so I try to do that. I like almost everyone I meet, but it takes a lot for me to deeply care about someone. Once I do love someone, I really love them.
I'm apparently very good at talking about myself, too, but I'm gonna wrap this up now. You'll get to know me better from the rest of my blog. :)
