It’s one thing to have a partner in the family, and another thing to raise kids without daddy in the house.

Time has passed and years come. A once family tradition is changed and adapted to a new kind. I am now a lone parent raising my kids on my own.

Is it easy? Not really. Do I have peace though? Well, I am starting to learn the true definition of peace.

You see, peace comes after a person finally accept themselves for who they are. I was accustomed to deny myself and be who people expect me to be. That results into me loosing who I truly am.

I am not a shy person, but rather a very outgoing individual. I go out of my way in helping people in need and I never like to brag about it.

When people ask for help, I make time for them even if it means sacrificing my personal time. Rather than gossiping, I mind my own business and stay out of judgmental groups.

These are new discoveries that I never had when a man was controlling my overall daily living. Thank God I am free from my past.
