Soul
I feel like a lot of people want to know what my big secret is. The "how do you do it?" kind of thing. True to the brutally honest and open nature of this book, I have no problem answering this without you even opening it. It's really a combination of things, and although the content of the book is not in any order, this is one list that I actually can put in order. But the spot for the top is tied. It is both having time to myself (for myself) and having faith. I think probably the biggest secret here is that I take a lot of time for myself because I need it. It's really the only time I can write. And I basically keep myself grounded. Having faith in a lot of people (but most importantly myself) is what really gets me through everything. I don't believe in perfection, which helps me realize that I am only human and it's ok for me to make mistakes. I basically try to play by my own rules that I make up as I go along. As for everyone else, what can any of us do besides try to be understanding? I kind of think you have to feel weak before you can get strong. And I might cry, but if in the end all I can do is laugh (I'd be lost without you, Jeff and hopefully they'll understand that "twin" means soulmate in a whole new way), then at least I have loved, cried and laughed, and that's pretty good.

And then there are all kinds of other things that help me in life. Sometimes the only thing that can get me to study is Christmas music. Some people just really humble me. To see their smiles renews my faith. Life is surprising like that. I realize that although I look like myself, I truly am a "combo kid" regarding personality and sense of humor. Love you, M and D. Anyway, I think we all find ways to help ourselves out. What I hope is that we can all find ways to help each other out and just remember that we're all human.
