In this past year alone, I lost my family that I gave so much of myself, to have … Close friends betrayed me at levels I cannot even comprehend … Those I loved the most and held close to my heart, abandoned me and did not choose me … I was lied on, and stripped of everything I have build for myself … And now I have to start from the very beginning,” she wrote.
“And yet … I AM GRATEFUL TO GOD FOR ALL OF IT! I am blessed with a another year of life, reminding me how precious life truly is, and that you can always start over and try again. I am excited to do things differently and not betray myself again. My girls deserve a thriving mama, who respects herself enough to do right by herself. I feel free and liberated,” she added.
