1/15/13 (Thankful for my past)

The past is the past for a reason,it helps shape your future & who you are. Our pasts are not always the greatest i had some dark moments & I also had some bright moments.  But you know what? I m glad I went through all the dark & bright moments... Because the person that I have become is pretty darn awsome!

Sometimes I feel like I haven't done much in my life, then I have to really to look at what ALL I really did in my life. I have done some amazing things & met some kick ass ppl.  I have went to places that I dreamed of going.  I found a love that I never thought in real life I could have.

The past doesn't make our future, it helps shape us... That is something I have had to learn but at the same time I never let shape my suture or "make" me into anything I dont want to be ... Ive been in a domestic violence situation, I still have some side effects from that time but it doesn't mean I wont ever trust another man again.  I do.. I refuse to let that fear rule over me. My father chose to be absent from me for most of my life, yet i refuse to let him, or that take rule.Now he has chosen to make amends & I will give him that last chance. I know the type of person I am, I credit my life literally to my God.  All the good, All the bad...

I feel as though ppl use their past as a excuse for all that is going wrong in their life. The fact is you need to take control & take responsibility for whats is going wrong  in your life & fix it! The past is OVER & DONE WITH.... You control your future..... Plain & Simple..

I am thankful for all the ppl, even the ones I had issues with... I pray you all are blessed. Thank you for impacting my life & making the person I am today...  After all, if some of those things never happened I would have never have the life Im living now.. & my life is pretty blessed...

Be Blessed everyone!
