Overcoming Childhood Abuse To Become A Good Parent

My children are my second chance to have a great childhood.

Everything is going to be OK. Then again, OK doesn’t mean anything.

The diagnosis, while not changing me as a person, helped me to understand myself better. It helped me to treat myself better.

You don’t have to make peace in order to be at peace.

People like that love company.

Sometimes my posts betray me. I snitch on myself, as the kids say.

I can’t just lay in bed all day. I have kids and responsibilities. Even if I didn’t, I still can’t stay in bed all day.

You don’t know what’s missing because you don’t even realize a piece should be there.

Whatever your situation is, no matter how universal it might feel, know that it’s different for almost everyone.

You’re here, but your thoughts are a million miles away. One day, you’ll be up to talk about what that is. But that day is not today.
