i have been working on myself alot lately, working on the things in life that i cant change that make me who i am today. I have relalized that for so long I would judge people just by looking at them because I figured that is what they did to me. I always felt like I was made of glass and that everyone could see my history!
It has been a long road but I think I can safely say that it feels soooooo great to be me! I know I will never be able to change the past, I know that what happened is not my fault, and that I have the ability to see that it never happens to my kids!

Thanks to my husband, I have become a better person. If not for him being there for me and understanding things the way he does, I don't know where I would be. Thanks to him, I have a new friend that I would not give up for the world! She is wonderful!! We have known each other for a while, but like I said before, I used to judge a book by its cover and always felt like she didnt like me.
I took the chance to get to know her and I cnat believe that we are so much alike! She has been through what I have been through so she understands the feelings i feel the thoughts i think.

I have realized that we all have a history of some sort, we all have issues that we deal with. it is good to know that it is ok to be my self!

Well, I know you've been here at PC working on it for 2 years! Thanks for sharing! You've done well.

thanks guys! It always feels so good to over come one more tiny step in this process. It feels good to be able to look at my husband and know that he isnt thinking that i am a weirdo, it feels good to be able to hang out with someone and not have to wonder what they are thinking.. or be afraid of me!

Thanks for everyones help here too you all have been a great inspiration to me!

MRB, not only taking that step, accomplishing it, but realizing you have done that and congratulating yourself for it! That's huge, imo.
