Wow...these last couple of chapters are SO tough...you girls are right.
It's easy for me to get caught up in the "why was I so stupid?" loop...but isn't that just MORE abuse? Now I'm abusing myself?? No. This is where I draw the line. This is The Day where I begin to nurture and love myself...that scared child locked in a dark room, that young wife finding her husband's hands around her neck, the confused and lonely single mom searching for meaning, and the woman I am now who is finally ready to say: "ENOUGH!!!"
I am good enough and I will not accept disrespect EVER again in my life. Finally. I am here.
