I am not responsible for the first part of my life, however, I AM responsible for the remaining parts of my life. I dealt with much mental/physical abuse early on.  I sat down one day and closed my eyes and just went back through my life.  I discovered that I do not remember major parts of my childhood from about 3 years old until 10 years old.  I have always painted (acrylic) and sketched.  That was my outlet and my Gift.  I do remember walking away with trophies and prizes for my paintings/drawings.  I was a throw away child but I have always been a survivor, a winner.

​

I've only known dysfunction so therefore I've only chosen abusive, manipulative people/relationships all my life.  I was finally hit with a deception that I'm healing from now.

​

That's it!  I dropped everyone I was "friends" with, period!  No more toxic surroundings!  The number of my personal circle of friends is less than one half of my hand.  So now I'm at this point.!

​

I have been looking at myself!  I've been studying myself and discovering that I'm really just beginning to live MY LIFE.  I still  have love and compassion.  That is part of my nature.  So I have no intention of bitterness or coldness.  I have this very strong drive though to live, to travel, to see more and more.

​

So if you see me dancing, jumping and enjoying my life, it's because I'm truly beginning to live life (in my 60's).  .....me talking to myself, "LET'S DO THIS GURL"
