Having my kids changed my way of thinking....as i have a very nasty mother i was led to believe from early age it was my fault, no matter what. I moved out when i was 11 years old to look after my gran who was 80 years of age. So i thank my mother now even though she doesnt want to know me, as i will never do to my kids what she tried to do to me. I even had to cope with my husband's suicide on my own and get my kids back on track to a normal life....which i have and i have learnt to live again...my motto in life is...Life is to be enjoyed not endured....
Before that...I was young and immature...and thoughtless at times...but I grew up rather fast after my son was born...and learned to put someone's happiness and well being before my own...It was, and still is, a labor of love....
1-having a baby and can't tell all the ways it changed my life 2-my realization of why my mother did what she did to me 3-falling in love for real.Changed way I treated men after that 4-being homeless and then next step home but poor,changed the way I looked at people I had always considered below me. 5-meeting a woman of coor,getting to know her and it changed me because I learned the predijust beleif I was raised with wee ignorance of knowing better.How many people I never would have go to know if I hadn't by chance made that first freind of different ethnic background 6-last 1 I promise...A miraclehappening to me that opened my eyes to God,and have never shut them since.
