My new begining

From out of the depths I have wandered...the path was dark and I was full of fear. Fear of the unknown, the past...the future. I left the past that I had known for 8 years. The life of physical abuse, being degraded and controlled. I left...trying to find myself...to find a life for my children. That was eight months ago...and a long eight months it has been. I've hit every bottom on the way, many tears have been shed, many emotions brought to the surface and many battles I have had to fight, yet I remain strong and determined. Throughout this journey I went from weighing 228lbs...to now 171lbs. I have regained confidence, self reliance and sanity. I am finally happy with my role in life...and now, a new destiny has presented itself to me. One full of hope, love, support and comfort. This is my journey into my new life.
