  • Two Forgiven

    Sunday, September 25, 2011

    Overdue:
    "You can't change your situation. The only thing you can change is how you choose to deal with it."
    I heard this quote early this week and have been thinking about it since. I choose to take it one goal at a time when it comes to tearing myself to the very roots.
    Mommy- I forgive you!
    Father- I forgive you!
    It seems like a short time to be able to forgive a life of pain the two have caus...

  • This week was a good WEEK.

    Saturday, October 13, 2012 | A Positive story

    WOW. I know this may not seem like much to the average person, but to me it is pretty awesome. I walked on the treadmill twice this week. I went to Ulta with my sister and to the grocery store with my boyfriend. I was active on here which I have not been in a long time. What is exciting about this is the fact that I have had anemia pretty bad for the last four months. Just a couple of weeks ago, ...

  • By Myself...

    Sunday, February 17, 2013 | A Positive story

    My most difficult times are the weekends when my "wife" has the kids. I find myself alone...And of course, I don't have too many friends, as I have the unique experience of leaving a "high-control" religion several years ago, which caused the friends I had to shun me. So building new friendships has been difficult, especially since the kids were born. It doesn't help that I'm a pretty quiet, p...

  • A Simple Thank You

    Tuesday, March 26, 2013 | A Positive story

    I want to thank everyone who has been so supportive.  I am at a crossroads in my life with very few options, it seems.  I appreciate all of you who are supportive and bring me a little hope for the future.
    Thank you

    Today's Scripture:
    ‘…how can we know the way?’ Jesus answered, ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.’

  • Better! Without the but.

    Monday, April 8, 2013 | A Positive story

    Dear whoever happens to read this,
    I'm feeling good today :) I haven't in awhile. It might be a temporary happy, but its happy nonetheless. I had acting the other day and I've been really worried about it. It's new for me and my character brushes with a topic that gives me panic attacks. However, yesterday I managed to get through my character without a panic attack and when I was done, my teache...

    Monday, April 29, 2013 | A Positive story

    Nope. The first step did NOT bomb. He was out of my apartment as requested on Sunday. He did come back to get some things that he missed and we talked for about an hour. (He doesn't know I recorded it. I wanted to go back and listen to his "conversational style" - read: verbal abuse.) Anyway, it was not a horrible conversation. I said things that I have said before, but he seemed to kind of liste...
