As we go through life, not-so-pleasant things happen, people come and go, some betray you leaving you feeling like a failure, feel like stupid, feel like no one cares, feel invisible, and find ourselves being the person who's fearful, with low self-esteem, no or low confidence, people-pleasing, frustrated and angry (and sometimes don't even know we're angry!).

She was the motivational speaker at the event and I quickly fell in love with her. She’s smart, funny, engaging, and inspiring. I bought her book and audio CD “There are only two times in life, Now and Too Late!” I even got her autograph! LOL

As I stand in front of the mirror, I sometimes wonder where I’ve been and how I got here. Sometimes I wonder “Who am I?” Then I remember, God created me; I am His daughter. I remember that I am strong, confident, intelligent, smart, and beautiful, I can do anything I put my mind to. Now I have a wonderful husband and amazing boys. Who am I to deserve this?
