    Wow Connie, this was so powerful, so motivational. I am now ready, because of you, to get out of my cage at age 75 and move cross country to a warmer climate, alone. Thank you 🙏🏻

    This is giving me hope as I’m going through a divorce right now, I filed two days ago. He abandoned me and our babies four years ago to start up a new family with another woman. I have the courage now, please pray for me

      Sweet Evelyn, I'm sorry to hear of your current hardship, you and your babies are enduring. Please find peace in knowing this is only one chapter of your life. There are many beautiful chapter yet to come.

    Nobody is stuck. They just lack a plan. I divorced at 42, two kids. I was a SAH mom with no money and no job. I went to community college and learned a trade. Got a job, learned, and later started my own company which I had for 20yrs. I'm not rich, but I'm comfortable enough to retire. My kids are doing great. Figure out what you want (or can) do and take it one step at a time. Don't look too far down the road - it'll seem daunting and will paralyze you.

    Wow! everything you're saying is the reflection of my life today except....I'm 53 this month! I got my wake-up call last august. I literally woke up one morning and realised that I had been lying to myself all my life! I'm not who I am supposed to be. I need to find my true self or else I'll never be happy!

    Hello, I'm 40, i'm stuck in a reality that doesn't belongs to me. I feel I failed as mother. No choices in relationships, job and economic troubles that imprison you as you said. I feel hopeless.
    My reality is stuck from so many years and often I think that hope is bad because creates a kind of illusion and desire and it's hard to come back every time in the same or even worse situations. It's a burning feeling.

      Hi my friend, My heart hurts to hear you feeling so low. I know that feeling, and it is a very dark place. From one mom to another, we judge ourselves much harsher than our children ever would. As mothers and humans, are we perfect? No. But that doesn't mean we are not doing the best we can. I'm sure your children feel your love.
      40 is so young! You still have 40+ years to live. Keep dreaming! No one can dream for you.
      Sending you happiness & peace.
