So, it's clear that life right now is made up of a series of huge ups, downs, curves and divots. I pretty much think that's the norm for "most" people out there, or at least the ones who are in touch enough with themselves to be honest with the world around them. For those of you who contacted me so worried after my last blog post, DON'T WORRY I'M OKAY...it was a bad day....lol...I survived it, and I'm doing just fiiiine.
I'm honest. I'm open. I face things head on. I accept who I am. I appreciate what I have. I work hard every day to be the BEST person I can. I strive to be a perfect parent, but accept there's no such thing. I own my "stuff" and even attempt to fix some of it. I let myself feel ALL of the feelings, because pretending "IT" isn't there, only makes things last a lifetime longer. ( Just ask all the divorcee's out there.)
And I blog about all of it....because I can. I don't ask anyone to read it, or like it or comment on it. I do it for me, I do it for my daughter and I do it NOW because I have received so many emails of encouragement and support and understanding from people that I would least expect. I also do it now, because apparently my writings make some of you laugh, some of you cry, and some of you feel alot less alone in this big, huge world full of plastic people, happy faces, perfect lives and keeping up with the Crackbook Jones's. Oh don't worry, I'm well aware that there's a TON of great people in the world and not everybody is fake and shallow. I can safely say a good percentage of the "good ones" are my good friends or family or even some of the newer friends I've made in the past couple months. I'm still so lucky in so many ways. Luckier now, more than ever....never thought I could say that so soon.
Yah, it's true. I'm strong.
Yah, it's true. I'm not perfect.
Yah, it's true. I put it all out there and strive to have an amazing new life with my daughter.
Yah, it's true. On crackbook, my life to the outside viewer always appeared perfect.
Yah, it's true. I have bad days and even bad weeks.
Yep, I'm human and I'm honest and I'm going to keep being honest and keep being grateful and keep SMILING and keep being ME.
Because I CAN....now.

As you WRBFF I have to say that I am very proud of you. I am inspired that out of the darkness comes the light of a new day. As I mentioned to you that I think things in our lives that we are honest about are very fluid for us. It moves, sometimes slow and sometimes fast, sometimes enough to tread water and make it and other times the calm and relaxing times ....
I`m here for you, just as I know you are for me and that when the shit hits the fan I`m a call away and the best and most valuable thing is that when my shit hits my fan you are there for me.
I love you and the incredible job you are doing !
