ooooh here we go again...

How does one begin to change their life? I am attempting to do the right things. To be the woman that I know I want to be. This world seems to make that very hard at times. I've never been good at making choices for myself. I usually choose to make others happy. I am realizing that that is a very destructive thing to do...because while I'm making choices to make everyone else happy, I have to suffer in silence and wish that my life were better or different. Since I've been back at Barclay, God has given me so much strength to begin to stand up for myself, to be able to feel more confident, to be able to focus on Him instead of on making people happy.

Here's to another day in the right direction.

Yours Truly,
Charissa

Dear ex...

You know when you tried to make me feel like having me, or any commitment, in your life was the cause for your misery? Well, I may be a pretty powerful woman, but I don't have the power to make you miserable. You do that to yourself. End of story. Oh, and you were right. I am far too good for you.

Goodnight.
Yours Truly,
Charissa
