I woke up today and realized that I am a valuable person who is very happy with my new life and the wonderful discoveries I find every day. I will still have issue's like we all do, but I will never again feel that they are insurmountable. I have come to the realization that my families attitudes of me are never going away and that is their problem, not mine. I am still having a tough time making ends meet, but I will no longer dwell on them and let them control my life causing me to consider ending my life. I could only come to this point by the love and compassion of those here. I can be a little stubborn at times, but I now know 100% that you will all be here when I need you. I will never again cause anyone concern or worry about me because to hurt myself would be to hurt you all. Thank you for never giving up and know you are all responsible for this break through. I hope that those reading this will get to the point I am now and finally be free. I am living proof it is possible. So....................................................
THANK YOU!!!
THANK YOU!!!

Hold that thought, Sister! ;D You deserve to be happy, and also to be very proud of yourself for coming through what you have.
And know that folks here are pulling for you, and will be here for you no matter what.

I agree with you being inspirational. You also bring life experience and when you're happy you seem to be very happy! Only now to figure out how to make the happiness constant and everlasting...

Hope it truly is the turning point. If not yes 100% we will be here.

That's fantastic news Jessica...! You know I consider you a valued friend and an inspiration. To me you have given some great advice :D, you have shown you can be Vulnerable ::), understanding :-* and you have shown a great sense of humor. ;D These are all traits that I look for in a valuable friendship. Everybody has their down days, and that's what were here for. Everybody goes through rough patches. That's what were here for. And you have been here for me every time I've hit a wall. Know that I love you girl, you rock.
All my love

I appreciate all the comments. Just for the record though I am NOT an inspiration, ok? :embarrassed: I am just someone who is too stubborn to quit, that's all. ;D I really love and care for each and every one of you! :-*

Uh, I hate to tell you this but that can be an inspiration to some. Sorry, but don't be embarrassed about it. Just be thankful that you're experiences may be helping someone else standing on the fence. :-X
BTW, We all love you too.

I feel like I should be apologising to you. I'm glad you feel this way. And sorry I'm not so active as to always be here at your low times. But I do drop in every so often, and smile when I see postes from you.

Well your stubbornness is what makes you an inspiration along with all of the information that you bring to this site through your experiences.
