Carmelita, mother of two

I hope to get in touch with the caring, loving person whom I know is still in me but has been suffocated with neglect, hurt and pain. When that loving person is allowed to surface, I feel great joy. I need to find that person again not only for myself, but for the sake of my family.

Lisa, mother of two

I want to be able to start writing again. It’s been a while sents I have written anything I feel that I’m ready but I don’t know which way to go. I have so many ideals in my head. I don’t know what to write about and what not to write about. I love writing but for the last year or 2 I haven’t been able to write anything. I’m hoping and praying that I can start writing again.
