When someone hurts you so bad you just dont know how to feel. You cant feel anything and you cant believe this is real. I found my mother after 30 years, I thought that she loved me. I couldnt hold back my tears. She called for 3 weeks and life was grand. I felt so happy like life had a plan. Then as I called she stopped calling back. I left ( Read more... )

I just started this blog, and I wanted to see if there were people on here to relate and talk too. I dont normally put myself out like this, but I feel like this is a huge thing and I need help?

I love birthdays because I really enjoy the knowledge that I ( Read more... )

I was raised in Texas, the youngest of four, the one to pity, the soon to be spoiled one. Dark hair and eyes, covered in freckles, the family secret. Funny that I was the only one ( Read more... )
