Happy Second Birthday Ex-Felon Girl Blog

     January 17, 2010 was the day I started this blog. I was looking back on those first few post I had made and blushed with embarrassment as to how awful the spelling and grammar was. I think it is really fun to look back and see how far you have grown in different areas of your life. When I started this blog I was full of anger, regret, sadness, and deep depression. I wanted nothing more than to just give up and throw in the towel.

     At this point in my life I feel the exact opposite. Not that I am proud of the mistakes I have made, but I would not be the person I am today if I had not made those mistakes. I am a stronger, smarter,  more independent and emotionally stable person than I have ever been.  I have also trained myself to stop my pessimistic thoughts and create optimistic thoughts instead. This alone has really upped my quality of life.

     I want to thank each and every person who has ever read a blog post, posted a comment, sent me an e-mail, wrote me a letter, or just told someone about my blog. You are the ones that gave me and many others hope and inspiration. This blog has saved many lives including my own. Thank you again for all of your love and support!
