Lately, my life has been disheveled. If only powerful men faced the same scrutiny as women do in life… then maybe, just maybe, the world would have a chance to get better.

I chose my path in my own personal life, and I accept what will happen, because I am holding myself accountable. I have found it refreshing to understand these choices and face them, whatever that might look like in the future.

As this next chapter begins, I take full responsibility for what happened. I knowingly and consciously accept what this looks like. I am taking all of the steps I can to mitigate the hurt and damage I’ve caused. I am humbled and grateful for the life I have. There were many times when I didn’t fully accept the truth. I know moving forward, I have to be honest and make a conscious effort to move beyond my insecurities.

This. This is what is missing from the world. There is too much blame, hatred, and disgust. If only powerful men in control realized that they are not calling the shots. They are accusing and passing off blame to the next person in power. Step beyond yourself and see those around you who are suffering, who might need your help. Help those you love and hold onto them. Show the world what you are made of, and show the world that we all matter.
