I spent 2 hours last weekend writing a summary of my life. You may ask why I would do that. I asked myself the same thing. I have lived a life on the back burner. Unseen, because I was taught that others were important and I could do without. I know I'm not alone but I sure feel alone. And, I have lived my life being unheard. I'm now 48 and I want to be heard. If I'm to be perfectly honest, my oldest daughter has made me look at myself, my life and my choices in a way that I never would have. For this, I am thankful. I'm also hurt. This blog is my way of putting down on "paper", my thoughts and emotions of this period of my life.
