I think Purity sums up 365. My goal is to be purified.
---
I've done some stuff during my life that I need to cleanse myself from. I've already begun to filter my mind and regain control of my thoughts, which was a big goal for me. Having control over my thoughts makes everything else a tad bit easier.
---
I've also been filtering out who I talk to, which has made a huge difference in my attitude and mood. Spending more time with people that make me happy and feel good about myself, and spending less time texting or hanging out with people that upset, confuse or lower myself respect and/or confidence has helped me to treat people in the same way... with more respect.

I've been trying to eat healthier, not too sure how successful I am in that field yet. Working has helped though because it's a physical job that gives me a good workout 3 or 4 times a week. I've been drinking more water too, which is great. Still have a ways to go! I'm not concerned about losing weight anymore.... yea, 10 pounds would be sweet to lose, but I don't obsess over it anymore. I am me. :)
---
Which brings me to my next point....... I'm totally cool with who I am. Personality, faith, thoughts and opinions, friends, family, things that I love to do and listen to, the way I look... for the longest time I couldn't stand anything about myself, but I'm finally learning to appreciate who God made me. He doesn't just make stuff for the sake of making it... he thought me out well and I am who he wants me to be. The more time I spend with Jesus the more I hear Him telling me I'm alright. He shows me where to improve, let's me know when I'm doing something right and covers for me when I make a silly mistake... the guy's got my back!! I am oh so thankful :)

My thoughts on school have been changing I think. I love photography deeply, but perhaps I don't need to take it in school... maybe I should continue on in design, or switch to my original plan of film, or what about social work or Bible College? I've got a few months to figure it out, I'm not too worried yet.

Jesus is the perfect example of purity. I want to be like Jesus.
