This morning I felt like crying. Not from tears of pain but tears of joy! I felt like I was free from that cage that I either put myself in or allowed myself to be put in. I realized how I quit being the true positive, adventurous, care free, independent and confident Melissa. I suppose I could sit and think about or analyze the how or why this all occurred, but I'm not going to. All I'm concerned with is right now (and a little bit about the future...). I feel like my possibilities are wide open! I also believe that I have a very bright and happy future ahead of me. It's almost as if I'm 19 again and I've chosen a different path to follow. One that only makes ME happy! So I'm a little late but at least I've figured this all out now while I still have a little life left. ;)
