Thank you for comments
I think we all need to hide some truths from ourselves, I expect most people have done something that they are ashamed of. Although it might not seem much of a sin to someone else.

This is a terrific post. What a roller coaster of a life you had in your twenty-nine years. It's really wonderful to know that you've been able to face all that past pain and have reached a place of peace. Attagirl!

I would love to know how you learned to leave the past behind
that's never an easy thing and it's harder still when there are traumas there.

Boy, would I like to talk or email you! You did exactly what my sisters and I PRAYED my mother would do. Our lives would've been so different right now, had she only been that strong. God bless you for doing that, and putting you and your children first, even though it was hard.

Powerful writing, Symphony!
I think people do get something from reading of another's angst - clues to coping with their own pain - ways to tread through the fog created by life's storms; emotional, mental, etc. without becoming completely lost. I commend you for having the strength to open your soul to words and for the courage to share.

Thanks for reading, FormerStudentIntern
I use to be here everyday and post up to 4 times a day when life was so hard, I wanted to keep reaching out to people, probably for support.....now all I need is myself and of course my kids.....I need to get back to writing again, but wanted to let those know what I have been through...to give them hope that there is a way out....and I will prove that in my next post...

I remember those times and the pain I felt for what you were and had experienced. This is a beautiful post, even in the pain part. Why? To me you have achieved the hardest and most important a person can achieve. You have dared looked at the whole truth and done whatever you went through to come to a new door to the new you, in the same you but with a new perspective. This blessed me so. God bless you and your beautiful children.

Although I am sorry to learn of the abuse of physical violence you had to undergo in your life, it is the come back that I so love, a lesson I learnt at the martial arts training. So I will most definitely be intrersted to learn what is that made your life smooth by simply accepting the one best thing one can do in life, that is, Let Go (not an easy thing to do), and the reason that gives your name the meaning SYMPHONY.

Believe it or not, so many people have had to fight that fight, and lost it
I wanted to hear how you overcame it, first becuase it is amazing how the human spirit can survive so much, second because other people may learn and grow from your expeirence. This info here has been an eye opener to me since I am fairly new here, but we have so much in common. I dont think I have the need right now to go there, but I do have the need to learn from you. :) thanks for your honesty. I will be looking forward to more...

First of all I'm glad to see that you have resumed posting. I did not know you've been making appearances here and there over the last few months.
An eye opening post this was. I am glad that you chose to repost something you wrote for us three years ago. I never knew you have been through so much.

Thank you for sharing this. It isn't easy to write about our past. Sometimes it helps to face things. I'm glad your life is better. I pray that God has healed (and continues to heal) all the hurts and traumas in your life.

wow you laid it all out there for us all to read, I do remember when you were getting your life back together, but had no real idea of what you had faced as a child and a teenager, I always say I would like to help other woman who are facing life alone to know its ok, as I feel now at age 66 I let life pass me by and didnt even know it. Keep up the good work
