AUTHOR PROFILE



HOLLY
Female
1982
Danville, IL
United States
some-data...

I am a 28 year old female with a BS in Psychology and an AA in Human Services. I love my job as a social worker, my clients are homicidal/suicidal youth. But I do something that makes a difference because I am passionate about helping. I have led an unusual life with unusual experiences and use that to fuel my creative fire.


Some of my Favorite Quotes:

By Barbara Bloom.

Sleep, riches, and health to be truly enjoyed must be interrupted.
By Johann Paul Friedrich Richter, Flower, Fruit, and Thorn.

There is no education like adversity.
By Disraeli.

Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.
By M. Kathleen Casey.

If you are going through hell, keep going.
By Winston Churchill.

A bend in the road is not the end of the road... unless you fail to make the turn.
