I didn’t realize that when she was born, I was reborn. I was a new human being. During that phase in my life, I sacrificed, I suffered, and I shifted. I lost friends, faith in my purpose, and the ability to live a full life along the way. I stumbled more times than I can count, over and over again. So much so that I learned to find joy on the way down. The climb to becoming was slow and at times unsteady, but well worth it now that I am on the other side.
