day thirteen

I will admit...I have drastically fallen behind my writing...we will just see how long this challenge takes me :-)

9:20 pm-9:35 pm. Prompt: reflection on an experience

I had an amazing opportunity to take part in Project Unbreakable (http://projectunbreakable.tumblr.com/) last weekend in Asbury Park, NJ. My photo was posted today and rather than the apprehension that I thought I would have...I am so happy. I am happy because I took this step, it allowed me to realize that I am at the point in my journey and that I am looking to the future instead of looking back.

I am not saying that I am forgetting what happened to me. I am always going to use it as a fire under my butt but I will not use it to define me all of who I am.

I am so much more than a survivor.

I am a daughter, sister, girlfriend, friend, mentor, supervisor, colleague, writer (when I want to be), photographer, nerd, dork...so much more than JUST a survivor. I have many people in my life who remind me of that...and I consider myself so blessed to have them.

I am still waiting to see what more I am going to be adding to who I am.
