PROLOGUE
Life is incredible for me now. Life wasn’t always this
good, at least not for me. I have a wonderful family of my own now. A wonderful
husband who adores me, an incredibly beautiful daughter (yes, I’m a little
biased), and a wonderful son who shows me the world every day through his eyes.
Although the economy is going down the toilet, both my husband and myself have
been blessed with wonderful jobs, a beautiful home, all of our bills are paid
and we don’t lack anything. God is certainly looking out for us.
But my life wasn’t always this wonderful, like most of
us I had to learn things the hard way. Lord knows, I made a lot of mistakes in
the past but they have helped to mold me and shape me into who I am today. I
thank God for staying with me despite the many screw-ups that I did in my
younger years.
I know that you may not believe what I am telling you,
but if you are going through or experiencing what I have already been through
believe me when I tell you that it will get better for you. That much I can promise.
Your trials and tribulations only last for a time; you can either learn from
them and move on or not. God will see you through it all.
There’s an old saying, if only I knew then what I know
now I would do things differently. That is so true, but at the same time I
would not change a thing from my past as it has helped to shape me into the
person that I have become today. Although, I must admit that many things would
never have happened if only I had listened to that still small voice within me.
But like everyone else, I am a little stubborn. This story is about me.
Perhaps, I should start from the beginning…….
My name is Brianca Minuet Euley and I am here to tell
my story in an attempt to either prevent someone else from going down this road
or to give someone who is in this same situation the comfort in knowing that
they too can and will overcome it.
