You Don't Know My Story

I'm sorry it's been a while since I had posted anything. I've been dealing with finals in college and some personal things. Which leads me to write this. I get judged all the time. I do my very best to always look my best and be happy no matter how I feel, and so people don't even see what I have been through, they just see the parts in their face. This goes for people that are in my life now that do know my story. They don't know what I've been through our what my parents have been through and yet they will sit there and condemn me. But I know that people are going to judge anyways, so I will remind myself that I have fought like heck to get to where I am and I will continue to be resilient.

Don't judge my story off the chapter you walked in on.

Just because you know me doesn't mean you KNOW me. I've been through a lot more than most people think. I have the scars, most mentally, but I have the scars. Just cause people can't see them doesn't mean they are nonexistent. I as told that I've not been through enough to know much about life...I've been through a heck of a lot more than they think but I'll shut my mouth because that's what I should do.
I've been told I have a Cinderella act going on and I need to drop it, though I'm sure they said it based off this blog, I could be wrong. So let me just say this. My blog: The Cinderella Story is related to SURVIVING. Getting through the abuse and becoming resilient. It has nothing to do with being fake, thinking I'm better than myself. It has to do with solely being a survivor and making yourself a better you. I have created this blog and this idea simply to "share the glass slipper" show that you can get through anything.

This has been one of the days where my depression has gotten to a high. I am exhausted because I had to force myself to get up, get dressed, put on make up, do my homework and even to eat. But you know what I do it, I force myself to do it because if I don't then I will just fall deeper into a depression. I get myself up and I remind myself that tomorrow will be a new day and I can get through it. And you know what? I'll get through this too.

So now let me do a reminder for you all:

People are going to judge, they are going to stay hateful words to you and they are going to try and tear you down whether they are meaning to or it just happens. DON'T LET THEM GET TO YOU! It is hard to do, trust me I just admitted that I'm depressed today because of what people said, but yo have to try. You have to force yourself to get up and do things, make yourself feel better.

Embracing Imperfection ~ Scars

There are many different posts I can make about "Embracing Imperfection" that's why I added a part to the title regarding this specific post Scars . We all can recognize what an external scar on the skin is; we've all fallen a few times and gotten a scrape that turns into a scar, in some cases the scar fades over time and in other cases they don't. But no-one really takes into account our internal scarring...why is that? Now I don't mean literally inside our body like scar tissue from a surgery, I mean our emotional scarring. The scarring that is so evidently present to us but no-one else sees it. If you take a look at the definition of a scar (just a scar in general) it, of course goes over other details but it also says that it is the process of wound repair and that it is a natural occurrence in the healing process . Let me repeat this...it is the process of wound repair and a natural occurrence in the healing process. What is the difference in that defi

Don't Give Them the Satisfaction

We all know what rejection feels like...no I don't mean getting turned from a guy or girl, I mean the rejection of being told you can't or maybe you won't be good at it, or anything else related those. So what I am about to tell you is super important....are you ready?? Don't give them the satisfaction! It's hard to keep going when you are told you can't do something or that you won't be good at something, but don't give the person the satisfaction of you quitting no matter what. Now, I'm not saying that every person who tells you that you won't be able to do something is meaning it in a cruel or malicious intent in mind, the person could just have your best interest in mind but still don't let them tell you what you have the ability to do. It's tough, trust me I know. When someone tells me I won't be good at something, will have a hard time with something, or that I just don't have the skills it hurts and it's hard to not gi

My Story Begins

My story is one that people around my community do not know, in fact the majority of even my friends are unaware. This is my way of getting this out, my way of letting people know and understand, and to Share the Glass Slipper ! There were times in high school that probably would have been a lot smoother had the teachers, staff, and students knew why I was the way I was. They didn't understand why I would prefer to have my nose in a book than to communicate with my classmates. This is my story, the one that has been told to very few people, aside from the strangers in my Washington DC presentation. From the time I was born until I was almost four I lived with my biological mother. During this time my 'first step-father' and mother moved me and my sisters from Alabama to Mississippi, away from my Father. My story begins, however, when my mother and 'first step-father' divorced and she moved in with another man. So now you ask what happened? During a visitation wit
