A lonely girl with little social skills and absolutely no self esteem survived every day with the help of alcohol and drugs. She would put on her happy outgoing bubbly personality which was nothing more than a mask hiding the truth from the world.
Somehow with a little divine intervention, a good hearted cop, and an amazing defense attorney instead of going to prison for her 22nd birthday she was given a second chance at life. A chance to do better, be better and she always come out of the fire a better version of herself than the one baptized by the flames.
One truth she holds near and dear to her heart no matter what storm threatens her resolve is this: no matter who you were, you are striving every day to be a better you, yesterday cannot be changed or taken back, tomorrow isn't promised so make no apologies for being who you are meant to be.
This has never been so true as it's been here recently.
Alex'sescape happened to stumble across my profile and we began chatting daily. He is determined to help me accomplish my goals, his praise motivates me to do better and try harder. He is both demanding and caring, he's straight forward in our daily communication and takes the time to answer any questions I have.
No one I know can predict the future but I am full of anticipation for what is yet to come and thankful for his belief in me. I'm a better person for meeting him.
Another layer of ash floats away on the breeze at the close of today... tomorrow is already calling..
