Change is inevitable because nothing stays the same. It is true that where we come from and life itself may shape us in a manner which is harmful as we mature. It may also cause a great awakening if we keep our eyes and ears open. Stay vigilant, and never assume that one is captivated forever by manipulation, or will forever seem weak because of their past. You don’t know when the revelation will surface, but you may be surprised that she doesn’t see you as she used to. Imagine that. The experience you gave her was her best teacher!

Things begin to heat up as we continue on this journey of my true story. It was Christmas time, and then New Year’s came along. Mark had me doing things I never thought I would, or could. I had always thought of myself as an honest and kind person, which had changed already since we were already cheating together on his wife, but I allowed him to take it a step further.

Men, this is mainly for you. If you believe you know EVERYTHING a woman likes, I want to educate on some of the myths or learned behaviors that are actually not pleasing at all. Women - communicate to him if he’s not getting it right and completely turning you off, or hurting you! In fact communication should be mutual.

What if you could physically and emotionally take back your love from someone undeserving that you wasted so much time on? Well unfortunately we can’t. But what we CAN do is forgive both them and ourselves, and being careful not to give ourselves away so quickly going forward. Keeping our love for the right person is very much realistic!

Our world and experiences shape who we are.  If you have had the privilege of people speaking life into you on a regular basis, if you have been in the most respectable marriages, friendships or relationships, and if you have basically had a really awesome life, you are blessed beyond measure.  Some people have experienced the total opposite, and many times over.  Listen as I share how I purged the negative things in my heart and mind, by facing my pain instead of trying to run from it.

Holidays are the best memories outside of a new addition to families, whether it's a baby or even an animal.  When you have unresolved issues within your relationship or marriage though, it can surface at the worst times.  Unfortunately, I have countless unpleasant memories of various holidays in being with my ex spouse.  Although I don't allow them to affect me now.  I seem to never forget those moments that could have been amazing. Communication is everything in a marriage.  Don't ruin precious memories because you are lacking in this area.  Get professional help if needed, or an otherwise great holiday memory may not be the only thing you lose eventually.  Happy Holidays Everyone!

Your home should be your sanctuary, and that includes your significant other after you both have gone about your day, and now it's time to come together.  When anyone has to walk lightly around someone, it breaks down intimacy because you never know what will set them off.  If you are in this situation, I pray that you seek counseling for yourself even if he won't go with you.  Counseling is a beautiful thing when two people want to help the marriage or relationship, however; it is not a necessity and one should never decline a support system nor counsel which will ultimately assist in your self-worth.  Love is blind and you want to keep your mind wide open to strengthen YOU at all times.

Watch how you take her for granted.  You may get a meek and soft spoken woman who unfortunately cannot find herself, due to years of some form of abuse.  You may even think of yourself as so in control of what you call a fool because you walk all over her. It may take her many years, but when she exits, it will rock your world and your ego. Please understand that she may not say much, but she's taking in everything that you do to her, and every way that you have made her feel. The tears she's cried many nights when you stayed away with no explanation, may be the same tears stained on your heart if she ever breaks free. There's your clue!
