Molly is a military brat, daughter, sister, friend, and sailor. I met Molly in high school she quickly became like a little sister to me, bringing laughs and smiles to everyones faces. We have a conversation about knowing where you are in life right now is exactly where you are meant to be. For a long time, Molly believed that she had to have everything in order and that she needed to be in a certain place in life at a certain time. In some ways, that mindset helped her. She graduated from college in three years and went straight into living the life she thought she wanted. But she soon found out that was far from the truth. It was not until she finally slowed down and took the time to really think about what she wanted out of life that she realize life will take you right where you are meant to be if you allow it.
