We all go through difficulties in life. I think that we could probably name some that we have gone through in recent months and perhaps we are even going through some at this very moment. When we have those difficult situations occur, we have a couple of choices. We can either allow it to get us down and be the victor over us or we can be strong, take the bull by the horns and come out victorious on the other side. That is what happened to the following woman who was dumped by her ex-husband and left in a bad situation. We can’t prove that the story is true but we can tell you it is extremely motivational.
I have a beautiful daughter, and I just got a promotion at work. I’m making more money than my cheating ex ever was. He thought I’d fall apart, but I didn’t, he ended up getting fired from his job and is living with his mom! I am a single mom, holding the fort down on my own, no child support, no help, no car (he took it in the split, even though I paid for 75% of it, it wasn’t worth the effort to fight for it). I’m doing this. On my own! I’m a fantastic mom and I’m so proud.
I work a couple cities over from where I live. I make better money there than I would in my city but I can’t afford to live in the city I work in. I commute 3 hours each way to work, and work 10 hours shifts, but I got this! My daughter will never have to go without. And I still manage to have time to play with her and put her to bed every night I have her.
I might be exhausted when I get off work, but while I wait for the bus or train I start to feel energized, just knowing I’m going to go see my sweet baby. She’s 9 months old and took her first steps last week. Yeah, my life is hard, but holding her, being loved by her, being her mom… it makes it all worth it. She’s not the lucky one, that’s me.
I don’t have two dimes extra after bills are paid, but I have them paid.
It’s not easy by any means, but I am doing it.
Alone. And no one can take that away from me. He took my home, my feeling of security, and most of my possessions. But he can’t ever take away the parent I am or what I have now. He was wrong. I am not incapable or worthless or helpless. He fell,
I rose.
