From the Author:
I started blogging in
February of 2012. I made a decision to take my journaling on-line, making my
story available to others, but under the protection of an alias. Portions of this book come from “stand alone”
posts from my blog. They may appear out of place amidst my story line, but I
feel like the message within them is important enough to leave them as is.
Posts at various time periods reveal my thoughts and feelings at that time,
which may or may not be where or who I am today. By capturing emotions in “real
time” I hope others can better relate to surviving the same sort of adversities.
The events that I’ve chosen to document in this book are the ones that have been
the most painful and/or had the greatest effect on me. Some events may seem
trivial in comparison to others, but will come to fruition in book two and
three—the seeds were planted within the timeline of this book.
The process from blog
to book, under my real identity, has been agonizingly difficult—an unexpected
internal struggle. It has taken five years to not only write my book, but to
find the courage to uncover and claim myself. Fear has gotten in the way of so
much and fear has kept me imprisoned. My transformation to living freely is
manifesting, in part, with the publication of my story.
