Time for Change

I need to break free from the way I grew up and look for the good in things. It's clear that I am perpetuating my family views on life and it's simply not acceptable. They are poverty minded and limited in their thinking on so many levels. If my kids have any chance of breaking free from that oppression and insecurity I need to change so they have an example to follow. And, I want to. I really want to. I deserve to be happy, and to do that I need to look for the blessings not the problems. With the help of a couple good, spiritually awake friends I intend to overcome this old life and be new...joyful and happy. Not only that, but I need to treat my body with respect and lose this weight that bogs me down and get in shape. I can't stand seeing my body in the mirror, so why not change that too while I'm working on the rest? It's time and I'm ready.
