I’m so thankful to still be here, physically, mentally and emotionally. I am blessed for the life I have now. I have always told people that I have been 2 different decisions away from living much differently. I’ve said that for years, I’ve been two different decisions away from being a drug addict, prostitute, homeless, gambler, dead, abused, missing, behind bars, – you name it. But here is today and because some of my life choices are in that list I have fought hard to get to where I am in my life now. I am proud to look back at those life paths and I’m thankful for them, good and bad. But I’m here.

I’m here with God’s grace. THAT is what I’m most thankful for.
