I have seen a lot of posts like this lately. Chicks feeling so down, some think their kids are better off living without them. Ladies, we are chosen to be single moms because we are STRONG!! I know its rough. We're broke, socially challenged, lonely, hurt by exes, too busy, tired, judged, and the list goes on....but we can do this!! Life gets you down sometimes, but you just have to fight back. Happiness doesn't just come to us. You have to take. Decide that you want to be happy, and take that shit. It's yours.

I know a lot of us have had horrible lives. In my life, I have been raped by my best friend, and later my husband, I have been molested as a child; I have been shunned by family; I've homeless; I've been beaten; I've been a drug addict; I've two miscarriages; two divorces; been betrayed by my best friend of 11 years; I'm overweight, overworked, and have failed many, many, many times...some things we just cannot change, but that doesn't mean the rest can't be wonderful. And that goes for everyone, ages 15-99. I don't care how old or young, go get your happy today. I have taken mine. If there is someone in your life who's in your way, move them. If there's something you've always wanted to do, do it. Take a pottery class. Go back to school. Apply for that job you don't think you'll get.

GO GET YOUR HAPPY!!!!!
