Journaling:
Advice I should have listened to:
When I was 15 I met a man that I thought I wasin love with.
We dated for a couple of years, and had I known the trouble and heartache
that it caused my parents I should not have done some of the things that I did,
like sneeking through the window. I ended up getting myself married
at such a youngage, and not knowing what love was really all about.
My advice to myself now that I am older
is that truelove never hurts, and when you find the right person
that love will last forever.
With my first marriage ending in divorce has taught me
that nothing lastsforever, not the way that you think it should.
The one thing that came out of that first marriage that was a good thing
was my daughter.
She has been a trueblessing to me and our family.
