I really never did think that I'd be where I am in life. Years ago I imagined myself now, in prison or possibly dead. I feel I've come far, I still have family members that doubt I will make it much longer, but fortunatley I feel stronger then ever before in the element of hope and self confidence.
I recieved my final grades and GPA and I got all A's agian this semester and I have a 3.80 GPA. I'm excited for the next semester, I hope to walk away as happy next semester as I did this semester. I sometimes wish I could go back to Indiana or Arizona and find the people that saw me at my worst, but had faith in me....I owe them more then I could possibly verbally express, but still the attempt would be nice. Just to show them that they had the right idea about me before I did would satisfy me.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() As for the people in your past who supported you, can you possibly locate some of them to send a short thank you note, perhaps with a photo of you as you are now? I left a little church where I got a lof of personal attention and mentoring from the minister, and especially his wife, to complete my education. I kept in touch, and from time to time told them how much they had influenced me. One time the minister's wife, now a woman I consider a lifelong spiritual mentor after 20 years, said, "B & I have helped so many people over the years. You don't know how rare it is for someone to come back, and let us know how they are doing, and say thank you." It would be lovely way to share your joy, if it is possible. My very best wishes for an ever bright and even brighter future. Thank you so much for sharing your uplifting news.
