They said "Tell me about yourself"


 If we are simply a code of organized DNA, then couldn't a computer map out that  code?..


 But other than our looks and traits what makes my DNA different from yours?

 I like to think of myself as much more than just a code and a couple strands of DNA.

 I like the smell of rain, and burning news paper and I like the smell outside airports.

 I like scrapes and bruises and scars and freckles, because you started out as basically a blank canvas, and each one of those  shows that you have lived and that you've been through things, and that the sun has touched your skin.
 I like white bread, but sometimes I like wheat bread. 
 I like red apples and purple grapes.
 I like sleeping with the window open and my heating blanket on. 
 I love lazy Sundays because i have no responsibilities, and i don't have to feel guilty for missing something because i laid in  bed all day.
 I love the feeling of brand new socks. 
 I hate running because it hurts my bones, but I absolutely love running in the rain because  it makes me feel free, and  somehow it lets me know that it's okay to be an absolute mess. 
 I like sleeping on car rides.
 I like how God paints the sky a little different every day.
 I'm scared of loving people, 
 I think I'm hard to love because I love too hard. 
 My love is black and white, I live in polar opposites, 
 I either eat too much or starve myself,
 sleep for 14 hours or have insomniac nights,
 I either love you, 
 or I don't.

 I don't know what grey is, I never did.

 Please be patient with my imperfections. 

 For I have them..we all do.
