To the son, I felt grow but never got to know![]()
There will always be times in our life when things don’t make sense. Where there is no honest answer as to why it happened that way.
Over the past 23 years, I learned that we are not always meant to know why. However, we are meant to learn how to play the cards we are dealt.
August 27, 1999, changed me; I lost a piece of my heart along with losing my baby. I spent a long time in broken pieces because I buried the pain and hurt with my son.
When you bury past trauma, pain, and hurt, you will never fully heal; you will only cause self-destruction.
Find the right person or people to talk to when the world seems heavy, invest in yourself, and heal your past wounds.
I promise you will come out better.
Learn to treat the bad things in life as a way to grow and become a better version of yourself.
You figure that out; you become unstoppable, powerful, and a light that no person can put out!
Feel the feelings, sit with them, and let them pass like clouds.
Then get up, find the positive and focus on where you want your life to go, and put in the work until you get there.
Healing from the inside is the only way to shine on the outside![]()
