I'm the girl...

 

 

 

I'm the girl from the Minnesota.
I'm the girl that was born and raised in the great Midwest.
I'm the girl that grew up camping, drinking beer,
I'm the girl that sits around a bonfire in the dead of winter wearing a snowsuit.
I'm the girl that didn't want for nothing.
I'm the girl that has the most amazing niece in the entire universe.
I'm the girl with the best family anyone could ask for (well, most of the time)
I'm the girl that married her high school sweetheart.
I'm the girl whose life fell apart in a two month span.
I'm the girl who lost the one person she could count on in life.
I'm the girl that lost her father.
I'm the girl without a dad....

and so comes the epic failures took me from being "the" girl to being "That" girl. 

I'm that girl whose marriage did not succeed.
I'm that girl that ran away from Minnesota and reality. 
I'm that 27 year old girl stuck in a perpetual mid-life crisis. 
I'm that girl that is on the search for peace and happiness.
I'm that girl that has the world at her fingertips.
I'm that girl that is 27, educated, sweet, educated, employed, and single.
I'm that girl that most girls would kill to be.

So why is being This girl not good enough?
