Mine is a lot less interesting then those who are CEO's of huge corporations, or any of the other major things that are impressive to people, but if you have any interest in looking me up there is a link to my profile.
If you have a few extra minutes to spare I would encourage you to just browse through some of the profiles that are up. It's uplifting, and one hundred percent worth it. :)

Hi I'm Amber
About Me
Life is never what we expect it to be is
it? Over a year ago I had no idea that I would be in Virginia serving
as a missionary, but I wouldn't trade the challenging experiences and
the growth for anything else in the world right now. This is the place
to be! Serving others, and showing my love for my Savior.
I am blessed with an incredible family. I'm the oldest of 3 and grew up
in a single parent home. I look up to each one of my family members as
examples, and they have been my constant, and consistent best friends.
There wouldn't be an "about me" without them!
I love Virginia rainstorms, music, singing, reading, and learning.
Having been a part time home-school-er, I recognize the great
opportunity I have had to learn whatever I have been most interested to
learn, and to grow to love using my talents, brain and having a purpose
by focusing on learning new things.
I love trampolines, running/walking outside, and spending time with
people. I LOVE BEING A MISSIONARY! :)
Why I am a Mormon
I am a Mormon because I have lived it,
and I know it, and I have grown to love it with my whole soul. I have
read the Book of Mormon, and I believe it is true. I know that because
the Book of Mormon is true, Joseph Smith was a prophet called directly
by God to restore His church in these days.
I have faith in Jesus Christ, and a knowledge because of that faith that
he is MY Savior, My Redeemer, and MY friend as an individual. I know
that through The Atonement of Jesus Christ I have the opportunity to
choose the good things in life that will help me gain favor in the sight
of my Heavenly Father, and when the time comes if I have lived
according the the truths of the gospel I can return to live in Heaven
with him, and with my family for eternity.
I am a Mormon because I love Jesus Christ, I love Heavenly Father, I
love my family, I love the restored gospel, and I know that these things
are the only thing I feel are worth living for. I know there is a
bigger plan for me then just a career, and that there is a life after
death and a place that is worth living worthily for.
How I live my faith
Service, loving people, listening,
working hard, and praying every day.
I've grown to understand how important it is to let myself love
people--even those who I don't know.
I've learned that faith cannot be stagnant. It must be actively used
"anxiously engaged in a good cause." So that's why I'm still here!
That's why even when I have a hard day I wake up and try again for all
the tomorrows. There is good in every day, and miracles have not ceased!
There is something to learn from, and something to grow from in every
challenge. We wouldn't be able to grow otherwise.
I live my faith by trying to focus on the good, by trying to keep it
focused on the things that matter most: Jesus Christ, my family, good
things tomorrow, good things today, and all the second chances that I'm
blessed with. Trying to be a little bit better each day. :)
