A better me..

I just wanted to share today, as I'm so leased with myself!

I left school with nothing. No qualifications behind me, nothing, I couldnt wait to finish school, I hated it.

Since school I have raised two boys, which took up twenty years of my life. Now they're both grown, I'm on the look out for a Job, which is apretty scary and a daunting prospect getting back out there again.

I'm currently unemployed, but had to take on a course in order to get something decent behind me, so someone will want to take me on.

The course consists of Math, English and IT. Maths is what I'm useless at, never been any good, and there's been times where iv cried in frustration because I found it so hard. When I was with the xN, he didn't support me, encourage me..he let me struggle. He was no help what so ever. There was a time I just wanted to give in, but I pushed myself..

With all this stress and heartache with the xN I really didn't think I'd get anywhere as the pain was too much and he was always there, in the back of my mind, telling me I'd fail and I'll never be any good to anyone.

Today, I took my maths exam and I PASSED!!! I'm so happy I proved that bastard wrong. And that
him belittling me and telling me how useless I was, I proved him wrong!!

My life without him gets better by the day!!

The most awesome thing about this accomplishment is, the next time you go to try something and you are afraid you'll fail, this moment will be remembered and you will be THAT much more confident!!! Again, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

Amen, Emma! You Go!!!

Isn't it absolutely amazing how life truly is so much better without the disorder, the chaos and confusion, the drama and the gaslighting? My life is better than it was in the entire six years of hell I thought I was with my "soul mate" and better than I ever thought it could be...Go Figure! The key to this was LOSING HIM!!!! At times I practically feel like sending him a thank you note for the brutal, mindf'ing D & D!! It was the best thing he ever did for me in the entire six years! I am so happy for you, Emma. Keep going! This is great. Great things are in store for you. The more we sweep out the chaos and disorder, the more room there is for good things to enter our lives. I know this to be true! Most sincerely, (not) spinning. AND IT FEELS DAMN GREAT!
