Week Two : Values

This weeks challenges ask us what do we stand for. Deb has left some questions to answer. But at the end I think I will also state what my top five core values are . Hope you enjoy :)

What do you like to do?
I like to be creative. I love the feeling of being inspired and creating something new. Even when it goes horribly wrong (like my microwave cake in a mug) I can still find happiness. I also enjoy watching movies being snuggle up in bed on cold winter days with hot chocolate, or my man keeping me warm.

Who and what inspires you?
My Parents- They have gone through so much in my lifetime. I adore them. I look at what life they have and the struggles they have gone through to get it to the perfection that it is now. I look forward to being were they are at their age. I have young parents, who like any parent has always wanted the best for me. Even if that meant making sure I did my homework every night even if I didn't have any. Excepting the fact that they tried there hardest to give me the stepping stones, shows me I can achieve what ever I put my mind to.
Bonnie Rose- The things that come out of this fantastic 8 year olds mouth is outstanding. She says things that just have me in hysterics. She inspires me to have a fresh positive outlook on life. To smile and just be happy. She is always with a smile on her pretty little face, except when her evil little brother fights with her. But even then 5 minutes later she could be giggling away. She is a big fan of farting ( not lady like at all) However she just seems to have that outlook of " what you expected me to keep it in ?? " or " THAT WASNT ME" .
My Boyfriend- He drives me to the bring of throwing myself off a bridge sometimes. However he is the only person who can keep me going. Its like hes my mental motivator who keeps saying "things will be better" or "Hold in there its all going to be ok". He really does my make waking up everyday worth it.

What do you feel strongly about in life? – What things would you defend fully in an argument with other people?
Equality and fairness are two words that I a always defending. When people to speak to me as if I am lesser than them. Or treat me different due to the role in life they have. It frustrates me so much. We are all human why should we treat anyone any different.

So my top five core values would have to be:
Family Happiness Equality Honesty Compassion

What went right for you last year?
So last year was a very stressful year for me, I could make an endless list of what did go wrong however this is about being positive so lets see. I turned 21 and enjoyed a beautiful holiday in Bali with my man. He organised a 3 man band to serenade me on the night and had the mini tiramisu that id been loving whilst we were there come out with a candle. The band sung to me " you are beautiful- james blunt" I cried.
At the beginning of the year my parents lost twin babies. It was a crushing time however it gave me the chance to realise life is not certain and I started to make choices based on living life by the moment. Trying always to be happy and keep a smile on my face.
Last year made me grateful for the people I have around me. I have one of the worlds greatest boyfriends, who puts up with my mood swings ( I blame the hormones ). He keeps me smiling and always knows what to say. We argue and somehow he makes me smile. Which some cases infuriate me, but most time its what I love most about him. I wouldn't have gotten through last year without him sticking by my side.
