Hi Shawna, you’ve been through more in your twenties than people experience in a whole lifetime! I love your realistic outlook. No matter what, you keep on keeping on and I know that will serve you well in the years to come ❤.

My husband passed when my oldest was 5 and my youngest was 1. It was a living HELL, I was only 27 and didn’t know much about anything back then. Now 30 is at my heels and I have a new lease on life. Kinda like those people who almost died and realize that the small stuff is just small stuff, yeah, that’s my life. The part where you talk about being a victim to their circumstances, I had to fight soooo many battles about that with my family. It’s not a crutch for my kids to lean on, I refuse to have excuses. I am grateful that my husband gave me the ability to appreciate life, the small things, I always say he used his last breath to breathe life into me. I am thankful I didn’t sink, that I endured the treacherous waters and survived the numbing droughts when I just wanted to feel…something. I’ve read some of your post and you really made me feel like I am not alone. Thank you for that.
