Until I decided it was time to stop making a mistake become a decision, until I decided it was time to be better, to become a better woman for myself because I didn’t like who I was becoming. Broken into parts, you will come to understand parts of what I felt in the two years after I got my heart broken by the man I loved, and how that led to more than that feeling of heart brokenness."
