I finally gained the strength to walk away from an extremely abusive 17 year relationship in January. It's my biggest accomplishment!

The freedom to be ME. I celebrate and enjoy my weirdness. I am more confident and more tolerant. I am willing to love to and give it freely because I understand how little we have in this world. I've always been born to serve.. after 40.. it became my life purpose. I volunteer 28 hours a week, I work full time with Alzheimers patients, and I have found the purest, most beautiful peace..
How do you stay fabulous?I suffered a lot of abuse in the last 17 years.. most of my teeth were knocked out and I was made to stay in the house. I entered into this relationship a confident, beautiful, self assured woman and was, over the years, dismantled. Since I've left, I've started going to the gym regularly and I've just 40 pounds. I bathe everyday now, because my depression has began to subside, and I make sure to spend the first 10 minutes of my day in a prayer of gratitude and love. That's how I start fabulous.
What would you do with the $40,000?I would give myself my smile back. I'm a naturally happy person, I make a difference in people's lives and I want to be able to smile at them without embarrassment. I can do everything else.. but I would love to have help with my smile. It's the most important part of a person's personality .
