My name is Maddie. I'm 17 years old and a Junior in Minnesota. Pink roses and country music define my life. I love life, but sometimes I get too big of a handful of life and become overwhelmed. Throughout the last year I've shed far too many tears and dealt with too many heartbreaks. But, I know it was for the better. We all need to learn about life eventually. Now I'll just stick to believing that I'm beautiful no matter what. You are beautiful no matter what. Your smile makes you beautiful. Your laugh makes you beautiful. Your humor makes you beautiful. Your friends and family make you beautiful. Your weaknesses and flaws make you beautiful. You are you, and that is beautiful.
