A while back Emery wrote about her love story (which was amazing) and she got the idea from Jen who was writing her own love story (also a great read!). I’ve been thinking about it for months now. I wanted to start writing a bit about my life. The Story Of Me if you will. I’ve been through some rough times. Most of my struggles have to do with low self esteem, depression, bad boyfriends, pregnancy, abortion, drugs and alcohol and how I coped with all of the above. My story, to others, may not be so interesting. I guess I’m afraid of putting it all out there in the blog world and having people laugh at me. “Oh, she thinks that was bad! She has no clue.” I’m scared.
Okay. That’s a reason why I wouldn’t want to write about my life. How about a reason TO write my story? My main motivation for sharing my life story is hope that it would minister to someone out there. I’d like to know that someone could read my story and learn from my mistakes. Or someone who is going through what I went through could read my story and know that I turned out okay.

I say go for it. People won't laugh, they'll probably be inspired. It's always awesome to see a happy ending. :)
I want to read it! And I can't wait to read it. I've read some of it before, and I WAS inspired, by your words, by how you have overcome obstacles and strongholds. You are an inspiration to me and I know that you will be to others. So write, already!
I love you.
hehe. I KNOW! I keep TALKING about writing, but never actually writing. GEEZ! So, I'm working on it. Gotta put a lot of prayer into it. TOUGH TOPICS coming soon.
