Had a wonderful time this weekend. Went out for a nice Argentina style dinner and drinks. I decided to take a picture and when I looked at it, I could see joy and life in the picture. It reminded me that all of the things I've been through did not destroy me. 🙋🏾‍♀️ I have survived to show the world that you can still smile, still look good and enjoy life. Press on humanity knowing that you will be victorious! Let your light shine bright. I am grateful to The Most High for this experience and guidance through it. #grateful #dontlooklike #whativebeenthrough #stillhappy #joy #ilookgood #presson #humanity #TMH https://www.instagram.com/p/Co3bUI0pJQbU2vBIjraGGVhnZAKoN1FdCGUOQw0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

nothing.

you may think you know me and those who don't are always quick enough to judge the decisions I make. Truth is, not many people know what I've been through nor how I got through each situation.

Waking up each day, having no motivation to move out of bed. Fearing the outside world and what people thought of me, not being able to tell anyone incase they didn't understand.

To be with someone you thought you loved and loved you back to be called a 'nothing' by them each and every day for near enough 3 years. Being separated from your family, not knowing what was going to happen next or what mood he would be in. completely unpredictable. Being afraid to speak because you didn't know what reaction you'd get. Being hit around every day thinking it was normal.

'nothing'.

To think of my life the way it was to where I now, it really makes me appreciate the people in my life who have been there and have never given up on me. Everything I've achieved since I realised I deserved better has pushed me harder to reach my dreams.

No one in this world should ever be called a 'nothing' and accept it. It may have taken me years to realise it, but now I know exactly what I deserve and refuse to settle for anything less. I'm stronger now than ever before..
