Well I've been through a lot in my lifetime. My mom put me through a lot but I've been strong w everything that has happened. The experiences about almost everything you can imagine. I'm a very forgivable person. My dad and I haven't seen each other since I was 3. Last time I saw him as when he got charged w kidnapping because he picked me up from my mom's for a visit and I had bite marks all over me and so he took me and ran. I was on missing persons for about a year or so. But the state made him give me back even though it was an unsafe environment living with my mom. I never held that against my mo though. I love my mom I do despite all the negative situations I was put in. I think the only thing in my life that brought me down was when I lost my boys to cps and it wasn't cps that took them I needed help cuz I started hanging out w a person that was once a friend who introduced me to the most negative thing on this planet. But n matter how I tried to get them back and how good I did getting sober cps found a way to knock me down mosly cause of not having a job so they terminated my rights and I slid back down nbecame self destructive. But having my recent daughter brought me back to life. She's my angel. I've been sober since before I got pregnant with her and I still am. I turned myself in to my probation and did everything I was supposed to and finished it all and now I'm off of it and happy with myself for the first time in my life. All I needed was to believe in myself and I could do anything. My mom always taught me to believe in God. I believe in God but I don't believe i n religion only cuz one religion believes its better then another and in my eyes they are all the same. I guess when you change the way you think then things will start looking up for you. Thank you for talking with me. This is better then someone behind a desk that doesn't know how the extent of things are hey just want to go by textbook.
