Good morning sunshine! Today is another day in Paradise!! I mean Florida! Where are you from? I moved here in 2002. I want to say that I had no choice but, I did. Let’s just say it was dangerous for my well being to agree to move to Florida. Yes, I was in an abusive relationship. Did you see that I put “I was”.  I am grateful that the Universe aligned the stars so that I could get out. Details of what happened aren’t necessary. When it is said that “bruises go away”, they do. It’s the memories, the feelings that seem to linger in a person’s mind. There are so many types of abuse. Abuse is abuse.  It took me awhile to get myself back together. I sought help, received lots of love support from my family and friends. I never told my family and friends what was going on behind closed doors so they had no clue.  Some people thought I was being untruthful. Some people thought I deserved it. The thing is, I got out. It is hard to get out, I know but there is always a way if there is a will. 

I still had a flicker of will left inside me. The Universe aligned the stars for me to get out and get help. The thing is, today I have become a woman with no anger, resentment or self pity. I am a survivor. Two years after the abuse ended I got married to the man that saved my life. You see, he was one of the stars that was aligned. I had found a man that accepted me for who I am. I am beautiful, smart, creative, loving, caring, nurturing, love the sound of laughter. I can laugh today, even at myself. Lol. I am grateful. This man supported me through my recovery process. We had a good life. I say had because the Universe decided to make him shine in the sky with all the other stars.  

I’m sharing this with you because I know there might be someone out there that will read this and is in a situation that doesn’t feel like there is a way out. Find your flicker of will, of hope, of self love to get out. Please find that flicker within you. Peace, love and light. Susan
