I enjoy being taken care of, and I work to take care of myself. Massages, spa treats, healthy meals, a getaway in nature, you name it! You may be like me, you like to be pampered. Yet most people lack the courage to allow others take care of them while others lack the confidence to admit that they need taking care of, still, some lack the confidence and courage to take care of themselves. Can we please fix that? The world needs us whole, remember?
Then there’s my son!!! I am a proud mom to a fine gentleman but the journey to his birth was by no means easy. I got pregnant as a young, unmarried, undergraduate. The knowledge that I was about to have a child out of wedlock tried to mess with my head. So I started answering the voices in my head, I spoke back loud and definite - scratch that, I roared back. I was resolute that I would not be written off as most young women who had similar experiences and neither would my son grow up to be at anybody’s mercy. I did it! I am still doing it!!
