I can figure out my own messes. I realized I can talk to people all on my own. It's crazy the things you can do when you don't have any other options.

I am a strong fricken woman. And as it turns out I've got a lot to say. When I stopped relying on my parents so much I had to figure the world out all over again. It all looks different when you are not hiding behind someone.
