I am Strong...

One of the things that my therapist had said to me is that it is important to believe in your strong characteristics and love yourself for those characteristics...

I am strong...and I love myself for being a fighter, a faithful person to myself and to love, and for being resilient despite all the negative things that had happened to me.

I am a scarred woman. I was sexually abused in my kindergarten days by my own cousin, molested by my own father when I was 10. I've seen my parents separate many times. I've seen how my father physically abused my mother, filled her with terror in times of his drunkenness and I've seen my mother's anguish as he womanized unstoppably. I bear in my heart and memory, hurtful thoughts of what my father said to me and did to me...That I am no better than a prostitute. I also endured my mother's bitterness over her past and the events from with her relationship with my dad...

Yet, I graduated Cum Laude and have always shown to people that I can be great!

This is just where my story is starting...and this is why I start writing here...so I can share my everyday journey towards healing so I can become a nice wife in the future, maybe a mother too someday, and improve the overall quality of my relationships...I believe I can touch many lives as I myself am moved by own strength...
