My Most Favoritest Person in the WORLD.

Eleanor Roosevelt.

She is My hero.

I started studying her in the 6th grade.

She is soooo fascinating. 

She is my favorite person in the world. 

She is a person who is well rounded, and doesn't care about what people think of her. 

I loved her attitude about life. (more people should be like her.)

Her is some quick facts about her:

• She was orphaned by the age of ten, and even before that spent most of her time alone.
• Eleanor Roosevelt came to symbolize the independent and politically active woman 
•  She married Franklin D. Roosevelt, and even after he had an affair she still stood by his side
• when her husband got polio, she did all the things he couldn't... even if that means she had to go inside a coal mine or do other things.
• She did all her own things, she helped with the government, she had her own summer home and she even had an adivice column. 
• even though, through out her life she stuggled with her parents abandonment and later death, all the things that happened with her husband, and her mother in law, she had such a happy outlook on life and was such an inspiration for others.

lastly, here are some quotes - so you can have some of her insiration too. =)

have a amazing day and i hope you learned something from this powerful woman!

Kyra =)

The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.

We gain strength, and courage, and confidence by each experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face... we must do that which we think we cannot. 


Learn from the mistakes of others. You can’t live long enough to make them all yourself.

7 Goals

Hello!

I was thinking today about what i want my blog to be, and I came up with 7 goals for what I want to do in my blog:

#1. 
One of my favorite Bloggers, kelli from She Learns As She Goes, started her blog off in January and talked about how she thinks New Years Resolutions are silly. I personally believe that she is right. They never stick, and they end up making you feel guilty about not completing your goal. She ends up doing something different. Now, every month, she posts her monthly goals of what she wants to get done. She also posts a progress report around the middle of the month and a "report card" of how she did at the end of the month. I really think I am going to do the same thing in my blog.

#2.
 I want to start a project, where every week, I come up with 15 blessings in my life. My ultimate goal, is to do this until I get to 1,000 (But lets not get a head of my self too fast. I normally sometimes say something but never follow through...) I want to do this to show that even though life can be crappy, there are still good things in life that are blessings even if they are in disguise.

#3. 
This is what I call "Currently Diggin'" (I am also borrowing this from Kelli again) Its where I go into detail about what I am into these days.  This leads me to number 4....

#4. Number 4 is "Kyra's Reads". In the section, you will see what I am reading, what books i think you should read, and books i think you don't need to read.  its going to be fun. You can also give me suggestions of what books I should read and we can talk about them...

#5.
I am going to showcase my amazing crafts. I LOVE CRAFTS. I just love to sit down on pinterest and find all these amazing things to make/bake. (this is actually good that  I am posting what I do, because then it gives me a reason to do it... ) I really want to use this blog to be a cool cat and do what all the other   bloggers are doing. No, seriously, i really want to show people how easy, simple, fun crafts are, and normally, the crafts are stinkin' adorable. 

#6.
I am going to try to make this blog super fun. I am going to have so much fun writing it,  that I hope everyone has fun just by reading it.

#7.
I hope what I say in the future makes a difference in somebody. I want people who read this to feel encouraged, to maybe have a sense of hope for a second.  I really hope that this is not me writing to cyberspace and that people are actually getting something out of this.

Well, these are my 7 goals for my blog... I am really going to try to follow them!
