(¯·._☆ Taking a Step Into Me....PLEASE...Read this first... ☆¯·._)

Thank you for taking a moment to take a step into me & into my life. However, please note that all that is written here is merely my own personal experiences, perceptions, views, opinions, feelings & emotions. This blog is a means of expression for me, as I find writing to be quite cathartic. I hope by using this forum this will promote open lines of communication. I only hope that by doing so this will help precipitate healing and growth. If you don’t agree or don’t share in my perception that is indeed okay. We are all individuals; we are each entitled to our own personal perceptions, views, opinions, feelings & emotions. Please understand that these are mine so you must read at your own risk. If by chance we do not share in the same views I am always willing to talk about it. I am always open to broadening my horizons n’ seeing the world through someone else’s eyes. However, this is me in my rawest of forms, sharing all that colors my world. So come see the world through mine….
