I have come to realize that regardless of how much you may change, there will always be a lot of hate in the world. Although I now see the world through a different set of lenses and I want to express my gratitude for life I know there will always be people that want to see me fail or be miserable as they are. It is a harsh reality but it must be accepted and forgiveness must be given. Yet I will never forget the things that have happened and this is how I must protect my family from any further pain. I am grateful for the understanding of all of this as it brings all into perspective.
