Three years ago today we had lost our house, been abandoned by everyone that was anyone to us, and were utterly hopeless .. We were living out of an extended stay hotel .. and I will just say it: homeless .. I had no job and had just finished selling my last piece of furniture to pay for one more night before we had to leave with no where to go. It was one day before my 34th birthday. And then... God showed up. Same sex marriage finally became law. Did this provide me with a bed? Food? Money? Acceptance from family? Love from family? No. But what it DID provide me with was #hope .. Hope that today would be better. That tomorrow will be better. #TheUniverse was working on Katie and Anna's behalf without them having to do anything. With it seeming like nothing in the world mattered and could get any worse. #LoveWins _ Has the last three years been easy? Absolutely not. But have we been provided with further hope and hopeful moments? Absolutely. ....... Am I going to let any of the brief past (and now, non-existent, moments) define my current reality - which is the #present and really all there is, affect how I feel, do, be, am, have NOW .. No ....... (excerpt from new blog) ....... _ I HAVE DECIDED to have more money, happiness, success, peace, fun, inspiration, recognition, and fun-filled/focused/happy/productive/peaceful energy in my life. And once I set my mind up to do something, you might as well consider it done. I am not a quitter. I am an achiever. I am releasing feelings of inadequacy, unworthiness, hohumness, blahness, and feeling flat for the new me. - #TheRealMe #IAmSignificant #IAmALifeChanger #IAmAnEpochMaker _ #TheShirleyGirls #SpiritualNotReligious #OverlookerOfNoOne _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ #PositiveVibes #God #PersonalJourney #Life #Believe #Encourage #Words #Inspirational #LGBTQ #Prayer #AuthenticSelf #Writer #Blogger #MentalHealth #MarriageEquality #SameSex #GayMarriage #Family (at Georgia)
