Okay, Time to Pay the Price!

"Happy are those who dream dreams and are ready to pay the price to make them come true." - Leon J. Suenes


If you want to look good for personal reasons, an upcoming competition or get in shape to be better at sports there's NO REPLACEMENTS FOR PUTTING IN THE TIME AT THE GYM.  You can talk about it, think about it, plan to do it BUT UNLESS YOU GET YOURSELF IN GEAR AND START SWEATING IT OUT, you're not willing to pay the price to make your dreams come true!


I'm competing in the upcoming 2011 Miss Teen USA-World Pageant in Houston, Texas next June.  Getting myself in top shape takes a lot of dedication, work and SWEAT.  I guess that's what the term SWEAT EQUITY means.  


Have you ever seen the girl who wears size ZERO jeans and makes them look good?  Or, been to the beach and gotten jealous of the girl whose abs look so defined in her bikini that you get mad at your own?  Well, if YOU dream the dream and want those results GET READY TO PAY THE PRICE.


I am...


Until next time,

SO, WHAT'S IMPORTANT TO YOU IN LIFE?

“I still believe in paradise. But now at least I know it’s not some place you can look for, ‘cause it’s not where you go. It’s how you feel for a moment in your life when you’re a part of something, and if you find that moment it lasts forever”          

Leonardo Di Caprio, The Beach.

Sometimes I feel lost and then all of a sudden things seem very clear, bright and real.  It's just that moment in life that let's you know where you belong, what's important to YOU in life.  When you feel that way, write it down, look at what you wrote everyday.  See yourself in that moment and start living that moment from that minute onward.  Believe me if you see it and believe it, dream it and live it, THAT MOMENT WILL BECOME THE REALITY OF YOUR LIFE.  Remember, you can only FIND YOURSELF IN YOU! 

Until next time, may the PEACE LOVE AND HAPPINESS YOU SEEK IN LIFE BECOME A REALITY THIS HOLIDAY SEASON.  Thanks for reading this blog and sharing in my life!  Never forget when you have those moments in life you need someone to help you over the hump, 

"... Don't be scared, there's someone there.  To say these words you need to hear..."

Yesterday is Gone...

No need for colorful ideas or fancy statements today.  This one is simple as black and white.

"Yesterday is not ours to recover, but tomorrow is ours to win or to lose." - President Lyndon B. Johnson

Ever heard the old saying, "Don't cry over spilled milk"?  Well it couldn't be truer.  Even though your actions yesterday may have had an immediate negative effect, TOMORROW is a brand new day and brings with it HOPE ETERNAL for better decisions, actions and prospects in your life!  Don't give up in life just because you've got that sinking feeling right now.  In fact, just "... pick yourself up, dust yourself off and start all over again!"  You will be celebrating your beauty in life soon enough.

Wishing you Peace, Love and Good Fortune this Holiday Season AND for the rest of your life...

Until next time,

Life is a Parade

Parades are so much fun. Smiling faces, marching bands, fire engines, sirens, drums, beauty pageant queens, fancy cars, horses and riders ... if only life could be a constant parade? This weekend as 2011 Miss Teen Delaware-World, I had the pleasure of attending and participating in not only one but two hometown holiday parades; Dover's Home for the Holidays in Kent County and Seaford's Christmas Parade in Sussex County. Being a resident of the most northern county in Delaware it's fun to travel south into rural Delaware and visit with some of my neighbors and friends below the Canal while representing Delaware in the Teen-World crown and sash. So is life a parade for you?

If it is, don't forget those less fortunate around you.  Filled with the Spirit of Christmas, reach out and help them along their journey in life.  Volunteer your time during winter vacation for some worthy cause, donate a toy to Toys for Tots, help out in a Needy Family Food Drive, do something for someone else.  There are so many ways to help others.  BUT, if your life is not a parade, don't be afraid to reach out to your friend, parents, teachers, guidance counselor, minister or someone you trust to HELP YOU ALONG YOUR JOURNEY IN LIFE.  There's someone there to help you!  

I'm so very thankful for all of you who take the time to read this blog, maybe take heart and feel better about yourself OR better yet give of yourself to others!  God bless you this Holiday Season.

Until next time,

Kristyn Z.
