About Me
I almost lost my life, and the one who vowed to stay by my side through thick and thin abandoned me. I left the place I call home to replant myself on the other side of the country. My heart was opened, and I discovered that I can and want to feel again. The past few years of my life has been eventful, and 2008 was no exception to the rule. However, in spite of all that has happened, I have no regrets. I have faith, hope, love, and the greatest of these is love because love never fails...
