father was about to explode…just to make sure he wouldn’t grab one and throw it without thinking. As a teenager and young adult I had no self condence, no self esteem and no voice. I felt unhappy, alone and unlovable. If someone would have told me at that time that I would one day forgive my father and develop a loving relationship with him AND I would end up living a life that I absolutely love while being blessed to share my life with the love of my life, I would have thought they were crazy.

I was terried of my father, never knowing if his uncontrollable anger and rage would accidentally lead to my death or the death of my sisters or mother.
I made a conscious decision when I started my second year to put my fears aside and take the initiative in making friends. This might not seem like a big deal to you but for me, it was a huge step that put me on my path of self empowerment.
I can remember when, even at the young age of 6 or 7, I quietly walked around the dinner table taking o all the knives and hiding them in a drawer. I did this every time I sensed my
