I discovered this site a few days ago. This site is a blessing to many who feel they have no where to turn with their pain and feelings of despair and hopelessness. I wish that there were sites like this 10 years ago when I was in the darkest hours of my life. They didn't exist.

I want to encourage all of you that pain and suffering doesn't last forever. It is temporary. Sometimes, the temporary seems a bit longer than temporary. At least it did for me. I heard a song say, "trouble don't last always"....and thank God it doesn't. Life consists of a lot of good days and some sad days. A lot of good times and then a few bad times. A lot of sunshine and sometimes rain. But, I tell you the truth, the sun will shine again.

10 years ago, I wanted to end my life. And 8 years ago my daddy, 57, ended his life by suicide. Honestly, I didn't think I could make it...it was absolutely the darkest hour of my life and I wanted all of the pain to end. I didn't know how to make it stop. But, I asked for help. I got support. And by God's grace I learned how to cope with life...when staying alive was so hard to do.

And you can to. You can make it through the storm. You can make it through these trials. You can make it through the pain. You can make it. Hold on. On the other side you will find new strength, hope, joy, happiness and peace. And instead of this season of your life being a stumbling block...turn it into a stepping stone into your bright future.

You matter. Your life matters. You are here by divine design and for a very unique purpose. There's no one else like you on the planet. No one! And no one can do what you were created to do. No one can accomplish your destiny. And people are waiting on you to fulfill your divine assignment. So, what is it? What do you want your life to be about? Its okay if you don't know the answer to those questions just yet! But, start dreaming again. Because, you're life as you know it will change. Your good days are just around the corner. Believe it!

God bless you,
