Yes, I was sexually abused

Yes, it was painful

But that is not the

end of the story

I was blessed to have

a wonderfull therapist and we

worked hard on my feelings

and perceptions of the abuse

I was able to forgive the people

who had such a cold heart

My reason for brining up the abuse

is to let you know there is hope

Let me say that again

There is hope!

I am living a full and joyfull life!

I am SO gratefull to God

and the people God sent

to help me

I won't  be mentioning

the abuse very much

unless it is to help

someone, I don't want

to be seen as an author

who was abused, I just

want to be seen, hopefully

as an author with sometnhing

to offer the world, who happened to

have been abused, I have

worked beyond the

abuse and now ready to live

the life I was meant to live

Thanks be to God!
