They say that everything happens for a reason right? Have you thought about what you have been through in life? Have you tried to turn the negative into a positive? Most people who know me, don't really know ME for me...they don't understand me. They think I may have issues or that I'm crazy, when in all honesty it's the opposite. I mean everyone gets down at times about life. Shit, I've lost a child and a brother to death way too soon on top of being used for sex all my life. BUT...I don't let that get me down. I'm older now and I have children I need to raise into great men. I think about what I've been through adn I alter my lifestyle and life in general to turn everything I do into a positive thing. I smile more, I laugh more, I allow a few more close people into my life and I love more. I am a helper by nature. I help others when I see them in need and I think my only flaw at times is I tend to forget myself and my needs at that time until when I'm done helping others, I'm still alone and left to deal with my stuff alone. I've gotten used to that and I'm working more on myself now without forgetting those who may need my advice, shoulder or help in general. What the point of this blog is is to say that I hope in this new year, each and every one of you open your eyes a little wider to the people who have stuck around in your life whether indirectly or directly. I'm a great person full of love and understanding and compassion and I ain't changing for no one. I don't expect everyone to acknowledge me cause I don't flaunt what I got but I hope the few who I have been a help to or call a friend to on here and in real life, see me as who I really am and not what your opinion of me may be. I wish you all a great New Year and always remember to love yourself first for without self love...you can't possibly love or help another in need.
