"And the day came

when the risk to remain tight in a bud

was more painful than the risk it took to blossom."

My name is Amber, I am 19, but I do not look my age.

Nor do I act it.

I smile 98% of the time.

Art, animals, and helping people are my passions.

I have 2 cats, a dog, and 2 fish.

I have 2 tattoos and a list of 10 or so more I'd like to get.

Life is short, embrace it.
