About Me

Hi,
This is my very first post and let me tell ya, it has taken me a year to finally sit down and muster enough courage to display my unique story to the world. But before all that, let me properly introduce myself. My name is Marianna but most people call me m.j. I am 15 years old and reside in California with my beautiful family. To tell you the truth, without them by my side, none of this would have ever happened. My hobbies include skateboarding and working out with occasional hiking. I go to virtual school now that I am in high school, but I have been homeschooled since second grade. I love music and I believe that animals are the best therapy for a soul needing some lovin'. Nature is my meditation and food is my medicine. I tend to be the black sheep of the crowd and I usually never swim with the current, but surprisingly I would have it no other way. It's what makes me who I am and it enables me to be a skeptic, form opinions, and have a strong foundation in what I believe in. I have been led out of the cave as Plato would say it and into the harsh reality of living with a chronic disease called Type 1 Diabetes.

  1. :) Very intelligent! Marianna. I think we are very similar in the black sheep, swimming against the current thing.

    1. Thank you! And yes I think it is good to be different...and venture into reality and truth.

    1. From one black sheep to another, there's no love like a mother's love. And yes, love possesses healing powers above and beyond those of pharmaceuticals. Stick to a smart diet, and your chances of living a prescription-free life will increase with each year that flies by swifter than the current of the sea. Best of luck in your quest of a healthy existence!
