The lessons I have learned and continue to learn are invaluable to me! I now have "tools" that help me see and approach life with a different view. I have learned the importance of acknowledging emotions and feeling them, instead of using precious energy to avoid, shove aside and pretend they are not there. Doing this has improved my relationship with my husband, and has helped me just be present in any situation. The best part of all of this experience is not only do I see how capable I am, but I can see my worth and love who I was, and truly appreciate all I did to get to where I am! For the first time in my life I am confident in who I am, and know that I am enough!
