I began this program over a year ago and from where I am now to where I came from is amazing.

I have come to realize that I do not need to fear every damn thought that comes to my mind.

I have come to realize that I don't want to have a perfect house, I want a home instead, where every now and then I don't care if there is dirty laundry for a whole day sitting in my basement, some sand on my kitchen floor and dust on my furniture.

I have come to realize that not everything needs to be perfectly aligned in my house, I like to see a "crooked" thing here and there.

I have come to realize that I don't need to be a supermom. If my kids burp or fart here and there the world is not going to have their eyes on my kids. Hell, I fart and burp too, it's fun! Let it RIP!

I have come to realize that my husbands infidelity over two years ago was the best thing to happen to me in a long time. Dependancy on anyone or anything is an emotional death sentance to your heart and soul. I now know me and my worth and I am worth more than everything and anything!

I have come to realize that being married does NOT mean I married my husbands family and I owe them nothing.

I have come to realize that I owe my parents nothing and I have broken the chains that they have had around my mind and heart. I am me and I will not change for them.

I have come to realize that my hips are bigger than they were two years ago and I have lines and stretch marks and guess what? I am one sexy bitch! :D

The greatest thing of all, is this, I have come to realize that not every person who doesn't smile at me means they hate me and if they do, than screw them, not everyone will like me and jealousy of someone is a hard pill to swallow.

I love me today and tomorrow, I will love me even more. I am not perfect, I feel sad for those whom strive to be, as that is a life wasted, I don't have to love everyone, but I choose to hate no one.

The moment you breathe and take that first real breath of accptance, is the moment you begin to live for every moment not every "what if"

I love this post..I can identify with so much of what you're saying..the kids, the in-laws, my family, the house and especially the stretch marks! I have been having a hard time lately because I had a bad panic attack yesterday and I haven't had one in months, but your post helped perk me up and realize, sure I had another attack, but I'm by no means where I was two years ago, it helped me look at the bright side of things..Thank you so much for sharing, and keep up the good work.
