The Beauty in Disaster

So much has happened to me over the last few years. If you've followed my life at all, you definitely would have noticed. Somehow in all of that, I am at peace. In the amount of horror I have been through, I have grown so much and have discovered how strong I truly am, who I am and who I want to be. I am not that broken little girl that I once was. In being emotionally abandoned by my parents as a child, it caused me to be very vulnerable. When a girl is abandoned she may attract the wrong types of people, and may be susceptible to vulnerable to difficult situations in her adult life, she may become an easy target for men or bullies, someone to be taken advantage of. They may find the girl weak and passive. I didn't understand a lot about people, and life. I was naive and I was thrown into a world that isn't always nice, with  absolutely no guidance. No one to tell me to be careful. My life got really bad to a point where I could hardly breathe. I remember that day in January 2018. All I could think about was how to end my terrible life, but it was a day when I realized that nothing could get worse than it was and that it was only going to get better from there. I decided to take control of my life and find happiness within. I have never been happier than I am now. After filing a few Legally blonde looking claims, I studied the law, did hours of research on legal terms, case law. I put in the work and now people tell me I should be a lawyer and that I would be one of the best ones. I started speaking out about my life and some of the injustice I had endured and felt like a huge weight was lifted off of me each time.  I knew that I was going to use this horrible life that was dealt so far as a gift, something to turn into something special. I am proud to say that I know exactly who I am now. I know exactly who I want to be, who I'm not and exactly where I am headed. Music is my love and it's my everything and I will be sharing it with you for the rest of my life. I want to inspire young girls and women everywhere to stay strong. I want to be an activist for change in social justice for women and abuse of power. I want to inspire tradition and being a good role model. I want to inspire kindness, which is something that we lack a lot of in this world. Most importantly, I want women to take a stand, fight for whats right and leave their mark in the world. I look up to many influential women, including; Meghan Markle, and Jennifer Lawrence.  I am so grateful for all of the support from media, radio, television, and those closest to me for standing by me throughout these past four years. I look forward to sharing my story with you in both a book, and a based on a true story movie, when the time is right. Nothing comes easy, everything is difficult. But you have to decide if it's worth the fight. No matter what you have gone through; know that, taking control and actively making change while seeking justice for yourself will always heal. Remember;

"We can do the impossible. They say the odds are stacked against us But that can't hold us back, we will be relentless So let them say we can't do it, give us a mountain, and we're gonna move it." - Leann Rimes
