Where my ladies at? I need you!

Some of you know, some of you don't, I love to write. I have something that I feel compelled to work on and I need help.

Myself, I have been struggling in life lately. When I struggle, I withdrawal and reflect on my past. I'm sure I am not the only one to do this. I look at my life and wonder about anything and everything I may have taken for granted.

I think about the big things, the little things. The things I never wanted to happen, the things I wish would've happened. I look at where I want to be or should have been. I think of all the things I can and cannot control and then overthink how I could have done more. I think about family or friends I should be closer to or spent more time with. What about all the time I can't get back from the people who didn't deserve it? How did I get from where I was, to where I am now?

I am hoping to talk to some of you ladies and hear your stories, ultimately to write about them anonymously. If you have a story to tell, I want to hear it!

We all had a picture in our minds as little girls. Oh, how our lives would be so grand! A doctor, lawyer, president with 3.2 children living in a dream house with a white picket fence after marrying the captain of the football team.Then life happened. Some of us had children way too young. Some of us married too young and it didn't work and we had to start over all alone. Some of us had physical and mental health setbacks. Some of us never found our place a place in this world, causing life to pass us by and we are still looking for that one spot where we belong. Some of us made a decision in a split second that would change our lives forever and we have to become someone else to start over.

I want to see what these journeys look like. Where did you come from? Where did life take you? How did you get here? Where do you still want to go? If you have a story to tell, please send me a message or maybe tag a friend that has a story that needs heard. Hope to hear from you soon!
