Getting on with my life!

With all that is going on in the world right now, all the change, the economy, the weather, life in general. I find I have been changing with it. There was a time I took advantage of my life, as it was the last day of my life, and I lived out a kinda dream. I was going out to fancy resturaunts almost every night. I was going to all the night clubs drinking what ever I wanted,"for free, as well as getting in VIP. I got to go to parties with celebrities and stayed at hotels that were very expensive. I lived this life like I derserved everything I was experiencing and I wasnt going to think twice about it, and mind you I wasnt paying for it. But then one day I woke up, I realized that I wasnt who I wanted to be. I felt as though I had not done what I have always felt I was here on earth to do and that was to help people, animals, to make a change in the world. When I was little I dreampt of being a scientist, one who studies genetics and diseases, but since I was on my own very early I had to support myself and I got caught up in the bar business and in easy money it brought, well, "not to easy" I still worked for it but, I had no idea of the value of money and it felt as though the money would never stop rolling in but, it did. I got sick of the business, sick of the alcohol and the kind of life I was living. I had so much fun, I dont regret my life, I do wish I could of had better friendships from all those people who came in and out of my life during those crazy, fun and adventurous times. Sooner or later everyone is going to get on with their life. Anyway, I find that now is the right time to go forward with my life, to some how start out in small ways to bring to the world who I am on the inside instead of who I am on the outside. To find self worth is what keeps people sane and happy, wether it be a homemaker for their family, or a scientist. I appreciate some people I met that have directed me towards ideas for the future, you know who you are!!

Moving home after 16 years?

Recently, I have moved home, and found that it was nothing as I was made to believe. I had moved from Florida to Michigan to live with my father whom threw me out of the house because he didnt want to deal with me just before my sixteenth birthday. Well, that was sixteen years ago right? Wrong, seems daddy, wants to believe I am still sixteen. He tries to control my every move, picks an argument over anything just to start a conflict. I feel he should pay for back child support and verbal abuse, for the present and in the past. I have my reasons! I thought I could put his behavior of when he threw me out, behind me until I moved in with him and found that he hasnt changed, matter of fact he is worse. From day one he has lied to me about helping me start a business helping me with my son ect. I am a single mother just trying to raise a child within the family He put me in a situation I believe is harmful and disrupting, I am not sure what to do about it. I want to seek out justice, but I want to know I did the right thing. I will just probably move out ASAP!
