My Nonprofit Reviews

I received legal help, counseling services, and classes here. What I learned was earth-shattering for me. It changed my life forever. I learned how to love and respect myself, set boundaries, and recognize abuse. In my changes I divorced my abusive husband, and learned more about being the best parent I can be. I'm truly happy now - happier than ever before even in childhood, because I now know that my childhood was inflicted by a controlling and manipulative mother and sister.

It may sound cliché, but I feel free. It's as if a chronic pain I've had for so long I didn't even know it was there has been removed. And I'm empowered to truly enjoy life in a way I never dreamed possible before. I know, it all sounds so cliché - but it really is true.

And what's strange is that in so many ways, people would think my life has turned for the worse. I now am dealing with a bankruptcy, home in foreclosure, very ugly divorce. People find it odd that I'm so chipper w/so much going on. But I realize that none of those things are what truely matter.

Old friends notice huge changes in me "Where is that shy girl?" Now people seem more attracted to my personality - and I have more friends than ever. I got a new job, and I've received alot of appreciation, accolades, and I was literally floored when someone described me as confident! Me???

What I do know is that I'm now comfortable in my own skin, am not so concerned with trying to impress, and just am OK with being me. I guess that's what it's feels like to be confident. :D
