"Never Giving Up" Wow! I never thought
that I would say those words.
The reason why is because I never wanted to deal with anything.
People
in my life used to get over on me and disrespected me in all
possible
ways. So to avoid it, I just let it happen, and bit my tongue
and
swallowed my feelings.
Because of my attitude of not dealing, I ended up homeless.
Because of
my attitude of not dealing, I don't have my children with me.
Because
of my attitude of not dealing, I had allowed my family to blame
me for
my mother's death. Because of my attitude of not dealing, I had
allowed
my ex-husband to abuse me mentally, physically, and emotionally,
and for
not dealing my life hasn't gone anywhere, until I said no more.
As I got older I've been able to deal with my feelings and speak
about
them, and I decided to fight for what I believe in. For not giving
up, I
have a wonderful communication with my children. I now have a
roof over
my head. For not giving up I was able to confront my family and
let
them know that they don't have the right to take their anger
out on me
by saying that it was my fault that my mom died. I know today
that it
was not my fault. And for not giving up I don't allow any men
to put
their hands on me, because I am not a punching bag.
You know it feels good. In life you will have
ups and downs. You will
have obstacles in your path. But those are things to see how
strong you
are, and no matter what don't give up. I know for me I'm "Never
Giving
Up"
