"No, life cannot be understood flat on a page. It has to be lived; a person has to get out of his head, has to fall in love, has to memorize poems, has to jump off bridges into rivers, has to stand in an empty desert and whisper sonnets under his breath... We get one story, you and I, and one story alone. God has established the elements, the setting and the climax and resolution. It would be a crime not to venture out, wouldn't it?"

The Saga Of My Life

Saturday, January 16, 2010

I had to write a biography of my life for a class to introduce myself to the teacher and figured some of you would like to know about how I became so great:

The world was blessed on February 27, 1990, the day I was born in Anaheim, California. My presence was bestowed upon some blessed people known as my parents and my older sister and their lives were filled with an incredible joy as they watched me grow throughout my formative years. It soon became apparent, however, that my fan base in California was growing too demanding and my family made the decision to move to a rural town outside of Nashville so that I could try and live a “normal” life.

Obviously, their attempts for me to live a normal life failed as even living in the middle of nowhere could not suppress my outstanding talents. Nevertheless, because I was also gifted with utmost humility ever, I decided to keep out of the spotlight of the news and tabloids. My world came to astonishing climax, however, when I realized that I was not the most perfect person in the world. But, when I sat down and looked at the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, I realized that He was the greatest being to grace this world and I submitted my life to Him to follow His ways.

Together, we have continued to leave an imprint on this planet as I learned about serving others through missions and was able to extend my fan base to places such as Nicaragua, Chile and Mississippi. I learned that I loved serving people and have since committed most of my life to trying to make other people’s lives better.

This tale of my epic life cannot be told without mentioning that even superheroes have trials. When I was fourteen, my father departed from earth and went to hang out with Jesus in heaven. It was rough but with the support of Jesus and friends, I pulled through a gloomy time and continued on the extraordinary adventure of life.

When I was eighteen, I graduated high school and went through the decision of pursuing a Nobel peace prize or writing a award-winning screenplay. However, one morning I woke up and realized that I had never been to college before, something I had heard was a fascinating era of many people’s lives. So I enrolled in Lee University, where my biggest supporter and PR manager, my sister, went to school as well. I decided to major in Middle Grades Education so that I can bless the younger generations with my presence and instill in them greatness.
