# 17 My new tattoo...hahaha

My tattoo would say "Take care of you 1st" and then you (me) will have the strength and ability to help others!!!!!! I can't have a healthy & happy relationship full of love unless I am happy with myself! Also, how can I take care of my child if I don't 1st take care of me? I CANT! I have been married twice and divorced-I found men that had so many problems and tried to help but it just pulled me down & I lost touch with my futu...

#12 - Part 2 (B)

I know I have more negatives than positives!  I am a very caring person and I try to be good and helpful to others but I lack in being good to myself!  I truly believe this is because of my horrific past experiences yet I do not blame anyone it is just a large chaos of different events piled up or like domino's! Some of this comes from poor decisions I've made in the past as well (self inflicted)!  I want to lead a better life yet ...

Assignment #4

Ok, this is hard to share with so many people and may be too detailed but for me this is "why?" I need to be here although I don't blame others for my issues I want to be free of them......The weight gain and (sometimes)depression come from a life of crape and living by accident with NO real meaning! I am here because I need to find purpose. This is my story & ultimately why I am overweight and un happy! My childhood until 8 years o...
