I know my last few posts have been pretty heavy so today as part of Jolie A. Doggett initiative over at Creators Hub I am going to write today about what is going right in my life now.

As I sit here at my desk writing this I realize that I have come a long way since those horrible childhood years. I have my own place that I have been able to keep for myself and my son for going on 13 years now. I have a son that loves me unconditionally. I have been in contact with the son I gave up for adoption since Valentine’s Day 2016. Where I live is well positioned close to things I need to be close to. I have three cats — Judy, Ruby and Misty- that are the sweetest cats ever.

My relationship with my brothers is good. It wasn’t always while my grandfather was alive.

This week I finally got my new Instagram account started. I now have an Instagram account just for my ongoing journey with hypothyroidism. There is a great community for those with hypothyroidism, thyroid issues and thyroid health on Instagram.

I have good friends who are supportive.

I really have come a long way since those dark days. I am still working on healing from my childhood. However, with that being said my space here on Medium will continue to chronicle my childhood in an effort to continue to heal.

What is going right in your life right now? Please share your positivity with me. Let’s lift each other up.
