Am proud to say that so far, I have behaved in a completely mature and respectable way. The changes I started to make in myself a year and a half ago were not for show, but for ME! I am a better person, more in control of my emotions, not quick to anger, and mindful of how I say things.

And I am crushed, and hurt beyond words. Just when I allow my heart a little chance to heal a bit, it gets broken into a million more pieces. How many are left?
