wHo iS yOuR pErSoN???????

I’M A HUGE GREY’S ANATOMY FAN, I HAVE FROM THE VERY BEGINNING AND HONESTLY SHONDA RHIMES GOT IT RIGHT BY BRINGING THE PHRASE “YOU’RE MY PERSON”.  I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED THAT PHRASE.  BY ASKING THE QUESTION, YOU FIND YOURSELF WONDERING WHO IN FACT YOUR PERSON IS.  THE NORMAL THOUGHT PROCESS MAY GO AS FOLLOWED. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

WELL OF COURSE MY PERSON IS MY HUSBAND, I WOULDN’T HAVE MARRIED HIM IF I DON’T BELIEVE HIM TO BE MY EVERYTHING.  OR….. WELL THAT’S SIMPLE, IT’S MY MOTHER/FATHER, THEY BROUGHT ME TO LIFE AND PROVIDED FOR ME, THEY TAUGHT ME HOW TO LOVE AND OF COURSE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN THERE FOR ME.

 

 

OR…… THAT’S MY DAUGHTER/SON/CHILDREN.  I MEAN TO QUOTE’ MICHELLE PHIEFFER IN THE STORY OF US “God they're great kids aren't they? And we made them, I mean think about that! It's like there were no people there and then there were people! And they grew!” 

 

SERIOUSLY IT COULD BE SO MANY PEOPLE, IT’S JUST A MATTER OF YOU REALLY THINKING ABOUT THAT PERSON THAT YOU CONNECT WITH ON SO MANY LEVELS.  I COULD EASILY SAY THAT MY PERSON IS TUCKER, HOWEVER SHE IS SO MANY PERSON’S TO SO MANY PEOPLE SO I’M GONNA LET HER OFF THE HOOK FOR THIS ONE TIME.    I THOUGHT PRETTY LONG AND HARD ABOUT WHOM MY PERSON ACTUALLY WAS AND IT CAME DOWN TO A VERY SPECIAL YOUNG WOMAN.  I BELIEVE THIS YOUNG LADY AND I HAVE QUITE A BIT IN COMMON, AND WE HAVE BEEN A CONSTANT FACTOR IN EACH OTHERS LIVES SINCE THE DAY WE MET. 

 

I BELIEVE I CONNECT WITH HER ON A FAR MORE SPIRITUAL LEVEL THAN SHE EVEN COULD POSSIBLE UNDERSTAND.  I’M NOT SURE IF IT IS BECAUSE SHE IS THE PARTICULAR AGE OF MY INNOCENCE LOST, OR THAT AGE OF A CHILD FROM THE PAST, BUT SHE IS DEFINITELY PART OF MY LIFE FOR PLENTY OF REASONS. 

SHE HAS THE MOST AMAZING MOM, WHO JUST SO HAPPENS TO BE MY BEST FRIEND AND SISTER.  MOLLY IS GENUINELY ONE OF THE GREATEST, STRONGEST AND LOVING PERSON I HAVE EVER MET AND SHE IS THE SOLE REASON THAT MY PERSON, IS MY PERSON.  AND FOR THAT MOLLY MERYHEW I THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART. 

I REMEMBER A VERY YOUNG GIRL ASKED ME TO COACH HER IN SOCCER.  SHE HAD NEVER PLAYED BUT REALLY WANTED TO TRY.  I WAS HAPPY TO BE APART OF HER LIFE IN THAT CAPACITY, IT WAS AN HONOR FOR SURE.  SO THERE BEGAN THE HISTORY OF US.  SHE BECAME ONE OF MY LITTLE SOCCER PLAYERS AND SHE WAS A NATURAL TALENT. 

 

 

 SHE REALLY STRESSED TO ME HOW MUCH SHE WANTED TO BE A GOALIE AND I REMEMBER SPECIFICALLY TELLING HER SHE WAS SILLY, SHE DIDN’T WANT TO HAVE ALL THE WEIGHT OF THE WORLD ON HER SHOULDER AND FEEL LIKE SHE FAILED BECAUSE A GOAL GOT PAST HER. 

WELL LITTLE DID I KNOW HOW MUCH THAT WOULD MOTIVATE HER TO BE THE GREATEST GOALIE I HAVE EVER SEEN.  AND I’M NOT LYING, SHE IS SO AMAZING.  SHE HAS THE MOST CARING SPIRIT, WITH A VERY HONEST HEART. 

 

 SHE WILL STAND UP FOR WHAT SHE BELIEVES IN NO MATTER WHO IT IS TELLING HER SOMETHING DIFFERENT.  SHE IS A VERY STRONG PROTECTOR OF THE ONES SHE LOVES.  SHE LOVES AND LOVES HARD.  SHE CONSTANTLY PUTS OTHERS FIRST. 

 

 

SHE IS ALWAYS WORRIED ABOUT NOT BEING GOOD ENOUGH AND YET SHE DOESN’T KNOW THAT IT’S OTHERS WHO AREN’T GOOD ENOUGH IF THEY DON’T SEE THAT FOR THEMSELVES. 

 

 

 

SHE WORKS SO HARD AND WHINES ABOUT IT, BUT CONTINUES TO DO IT. SHE TRIES SO HARD TO BE LIKED BY EVERYONE, WITHOUT REALLY EVEN TRYING, BECAUSE ONCE YOU HAVE MET HER, YOU WILL FALL IN LOVE WITH HER IN A HEART BEAT.

 

 

 

 SHE WORRIES ABOUT WHAT PEOPLE THINK, BUT DOESN’T CARE WHAT YOU THINK ALL IN THE SAME INSTANCE. 

 

SHE PUSHES TO PROVE THOSE WRONG WHO SAY SHE WILL NEVER MAKE IT, EVEN THOUGH SHE ALREADY PROVED SHE DID.  SHE NEVER BACKS DOWN, OR EVER GIVES UP AND IS NOT AFRAID TO FAIL IN ORDER TO PUSH THROUGH TO HER BEST. 

 SHE IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL YOUNG LADY INSIDE AND OUT AND BY ALL MEANS DOESN’T EVEN KNOW IT.  SHE LOVES HER FAMILY WHOLE HEATEDLY AND ALWAYS WILL.  NOTHING COULD EVER CHANGE THAT. 

 

SHE HAS GIVEN ME SO MANY LIFE LESSONS AND HAS MADE ME WANT TO BE A BETTER PERSON, A BETTER FRIEND A BETTER MOM, A BETTER COACH. 

 

 

 

 

 SHE HAS MADE ME REALIZE THAT IN ORDER TO REALLY GET WHERE YOU WANT TO GO, YOU HAVE TO ACTUALLY TRY.  TRY.  AND REALLY TRY AGAIN. 

 

 

 

 

SHE NEVER GAVE UP ON ME, EVEN WHEN I GAVE UP ON MYSELF AND NEVER ALLOWED ME TO SUCCEED IN GIVING UP. 

 

SHE IS MY PERSON.  SHE IS MY SIERRA LEE MERYHEW.  SHE IS MY HERO AND ALWAYS WILL BE.  I CAN’T WAIT TO GET HOME AND WATCH HER PLAY HER

 

SENIOR YEAR OF SOCCER AND SHOW EVERYONE WHY SHE DESERVES TO PLAY AT THE COLLEGE LEVEL.  I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE HER SHINE INSIDE AND OUT AND I CAN’T WAIT TO BE THERE FOR SO MANY MORE MEMORIES TO COME. 

 

YOU ARE MY PERSON SIERRA. 

MY PERSON…………….
