i want to share something with my sisterfriends that i know will be inspiring to some of you. last year at this time, i had a mental breakdown. this was after i had a breakthrough of some things that happened to me as a child. i spent approx. a week in a wonderful place that focused on post traumatic stress disorder.
to any of you who read this know of anyone that may have gone thru what i have or are in the midst of their own struggle know that no matter what God is there with you. it may be difficult to comprehend when you are in so much pain but it was he who created us--developed our minds so that we could deal with traumatic experiences in such a way that it can protect us and allow us to go on day to day. i am really beginning to understand that. trust me folks, i have had my doubts and i still do but i am at a point where i can really FIGHT with all of my strength to keep SATAN from putting those negative thoughts in my mind. so remember that no matter how strong those negative thoughts are, deep down the positivity that has helped you to succeed is still there. tap into that small mustard seed of faith and it will lead you back to your authentic self.
with sisterly love,

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for posting this message...It comforts me to know that someone else has overcome issues that are similar to my own. I am also currnetly finishing up some incompletes for some courses as a result of a long-term illness I had last year (See, we have quite a bit in common
I will be e-mailing you by the end of the week, FYI). I know that if you can succeed, so can I (and everyone else)!!! Your post really made my day, and hopefully by your knowing this I will be making yours. May more blessings come to you (and all of my GC Fam!!)...
You all are in my prayers...
Sisterly,
