Those I loved the most and held close to my heart, abandoned me and did not choose me …
I was lied on, and stripped of everything I have build for myself … And now I have to start from the very beginning …
And yet … I AM GRATEFUL TO GOD FOR ALL OF IT!
I am blessed with a another year of life, reminding me how precious life truly is, and that you can always start over and try again. I am excited to do things differently and not betray myself again. My girls deserve a thriving mama, who respects herself enough to do right by herself.
I feel free and liberated.
36 years of GOD‘s Grace 🤍”
