My Poetic Style

What are you most proud of in your life?

How can I answer this? I was a daughter and a sister. My younger years proved I could survive anything. I fought with the boogie man and experienced death. I managed to survive into adulthood.

I didn’t marry until I was 30 years old. I became a mom at 31 and 32 to a son and daughter. It was hard work, especially when their father was out of town for business. Our daughter was born with special needs. Trying to get our son to preschool and me to work created a rift with my employer at the time . They fired me because I was always late. I survived.

At 61, I’m still here. I fought breast cancer last year. I survived chemotherapy. I survived surgery.

I feel blessed to have known my mom and my brothers. I feel blessed to have known my ex-husband. I feel blessed for having my two children. I feel blessed for working for a company that is caring for their employees and their families. I feel blessed to have a daughter-in-law.

I feel blessed to survive the things I went through. I’m proud of “me” for making it through. You go girl!

Have a blessed day ❤️✌️🙏
