​Life is a journey.  

​Through the years I have learned that situations are never good or bad, they are a part of life's journey that is full of character building exercises.  It is my life and I need to choose to live it.  That reality has changed the world around me, I see the world differently now.  I see people differently.  I see myself differently.
