    • About Me

      I am a single mother and child care giver. I grew up battling abuse in both my childhood and further relationships as both the abuser and victim. Through the birth of my son I finally realised where my life was going and how it was affecting other people and myself. I left my abuser and healed wounds to avoid it in the future and continue to do so. I truly believe that peace and love will always prevail over hate with understanding and the ability to put things into perspective.
