JUST NEED THE STRENGTH TO GET THROUGH ANOTHER DAY........

 

That's how I used to live my life as there were times when I didn't think I would have the strength to get through the day. I couldn't understand the lessons that life was trying to teach me. I thought I was weak and insignificant.... only a fool would end up in the position I had. Sexual, mental and physical abuse, bullying, homelessness, were just a few things that I had survived. 

 

But SURVIVE I did! 

 

I stopped seeing my situations as a show of weakness. No, my personality is warm, caring, giving - I was not going to let life make me a bitter person. I remember waking up one morning 3 years ago and saying to myself, I'm either going to let life get the better of me and lie down and die or I am going to get up and put what I have experienced and learned to use by helping others survive their ordeals. 

 

There aren't enough Mentors on our tv screens who have experienced extraordinary life situations such as myself.  I reached my first personal goal in Feburary 2008. Self acceptance - I was someone who had little to no self-esteem. Instead of playing at being confident and happy, I trully am, as well as still being warm, giving and caring. I am now a strong person, mother and wife.

 

My second goal is to share my experiences with other women in the world, empowering them to attain their true worth.

 

We can enjoy the life we've been given, if we really want to!
