So its been just a little while since I last made a post here. Well, a lot has happened since I last made a post. For starters, I got a job, cut toxic people out of my life, and am now meeting new friends.  I could not be happier then I am now.
 I didn't realize the harsh impact some people had on me. I didn't see any of it. I had friends tell me that it was not a healthy relationship and my mom as well. But, I didn't listen. I thought I knew what I was doing.
I didn't. It was not till after I got a job and took a step back did I realize that he was no good for me.  That I did not deserve what he would say to me or tell me what I needed to do. I didn't deserve that. Just because he didn't want to have a life of his own did not mean that I didn't deserve one.
  At first, I asked for a small break for a month. After a week of looking over it all at a new angle. I ended it. Of course, he got mad. Then I got to hear what he truly thought about me. He called me names. Then after that, I knew I did the right thing.

Now its been about a month and a half. I feel so much better. I feel free. I don't have to tell them where I am or what I am doing. I can have a life and be me.
I am starting to do what I use to love. Like reading, painting, and dressing the way I want.
 I am going to school to earn my associate's degree in business management. I am going out and hanging out with this really cool guy.  My life is better than it ever was.

so that is what has been up with me since my last post.😀
