That being said, I am definitely very wary of people in general now, and especially of men that come into my world. I am not going to repeat my mistakes or patterns ever again. THIS TIME, I am learning the lessons taught to me. This time, I am going to change - my approach, myself, my outlook, my life. I am turning a new leaf and I cannot turn backwards. I am only moving forward and am getting stronger every day. I feel it within my soul, within my whole body and spirit. I am growing and learning from this, and I will be a far stronger & wiser person because of this experience.
