Don't Let My Story Be Your Story

A number of people have called me resilient and a previous supervisor of mine said that I share a story of resilience, but I say that I'm just blessed. I'm just plain ole blessed y'all. I did nothing special to deserve to be here, but God saw fit for me to share my life story (thus far) with you. Alot of the things that I see people going thru, it could've been me or it was me, so I make it known that you're  not alone. I could've been, would've been a single mother, but God knew that I probably couldn't handle it, so here I am. I'm not saying that God placed me in that situation, I chose to be there, but he did allow me a way out. I was and still can be hard-headed and because of that, I've had to learn the hard way.
People who know my upbringing, who think they know my struggle, they don't really know. I've been a great actress! Did you know that my step-father stepped into the room just in time to see a house guest fondling me at 12 years old? Did you know we lived without lights for almost 2 months in the 9th grade? Did you know that as small as Thomasville is, we've lived in 12 different places, within 5 years? But look at me. I made it thru and you can too.
