Just a mini Rant

I have been truly blessed in my life and I learn that more and more every day. But it isn't easy and by no means have all these blessings been handed to me. I have had to suffer and I have had to work hard for what I have and who I am. There have been so many times that I have thought about throwing in the towel, but in the end, that is just never an option. Everyone has struggles. Everyone faces challenges. How we react to these things is what makes us who we are. I am a very strong, independent woman. I pride myself on that. It makes me so mad when people take their jealousy of that and try to hurt me or my family with it. Unfortunately, this is happening more and more lately. I understand that not all people are strong. I understand that not all people can stand on their own two feet with their heads held high. What I do not understand the need to bring people down with you!!
