I\u2019m very excited for a summer in Detroit after about 6 years. I\u2019ve spent the last few summers in my comfortable college town as well as a summer abroad in Italy. I\u2019m now old enough to truly appreciate the beautiful summer Detroit offers with no excuses. This is also the first time fully being independent and working throughout the summer which I\u2019m sure will be an adjustment.<\/p>\n
In terms of reflecting after these last nine months, life is unpredictable. It\u2019s up to you whether that is a scary or exciting thing. Life isn\u2019t meant to be rushed, waiting for the next moment or full of worry. I strive to to take on life fearlessly with hope and faith and inspiring others to do the same. \u00a0I can\u2019t control what life hands me but I can control how I deal with it. I could either be anxious, insecure, and over think things until my brain explodes, or I can be still and know that my future is in hands much greater than mine. I choose to be still, and conquer things with love, positivity and patience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
