Yes, I am... ME

Women of the world, never let a bad marriage define your lives. You see, this is why I don't like talking about myself. Sometimes people get the idea that I am a tag, which I am NOT. My circumstances have never defined me. Yes, I have had a bad marriage, but I am a lot more than one failure. I have my kids that I love so much. My second marriage is now 14 years long. I have a beautiful, steady family, which of course has had some bad times, but nothing can be so perfect. My sons call my husband daddy, and call him on father's day and any day really. They are not kids anymore, they are professionals and live on their own.

My mistakes make me more human, more tolerant, more open minded. They have taught me that violence is UNACCEPTABLE, that women are the ones to show the way to have happy journeys as a family, and that men do to you WHAT YOU LET THEM.

So, instead of focusing in one moment of my past, please see the beautiful present that I live now. You are welcome to follow me in my quest for non violent behaviors in every home and every country.

No. I do not feel remorse or regret. I am not defined by the things that happened in the past. I am proud to live my present time at full, in fact, I love BEING ME.
