Forgiveness is a process of learning to love your enemies. If you think your greatest enemy is yourself, you have to learn to forgive yourself before you can truly love yourself...and others. - @beloved316

Born to a dysfunctional family.

Diagnosed with MVP (mitral valve prolapse, severe regurgitation). Diagnosed with TMJ (temporomandibular joint) syndrome.

I was a sexual addict and had an abortion in my early 20s. I was passive-aggressive and resented my parents. I had anger issues, trust issues and looow self-esteem.

I sometimes wonder if I'm bipolar.

Currently, I am taking little steps to help me get back to being fit, healthy and ready for anything, anytime, anywhere and to start walking on sunshine AGAIN.

I am struggling with depression, procrastination and pleasing my mother. These struggles brought me to 7Cups.

My faith, my husband, my nephew and my cats help keep me sane. Yet my cats can also drive me nuts!

Am I happy? I try to be. As long as I wake up to a new day each day, there's always hope. I also love HUGS - Hope Under God's Sovereignty.

I'll try my very best to get out of myself and just love you by listening.

I may ask questions and knock your senses with a few hard-to-swallow nuggets of truth when you let me. The truth may feel as if it's choking you for a time but it'll eventually set you free. After all, we all get to live... twice.
