I’m Thankful for…

SECOND CHANCES

By: Denise Michelle Sisofo

I am thankful for second chances. 5 years ago I suffered a breakdown… mental and emotional… the details and the why are not important. What is important is that I was given the love, help & understanding from friends and family. Their support pushed me to pull through a very sad and difficult time in my life. I would not be here today if it had not been for their belief in me when I had none. I’m ALIVE to see my son , who is now 8, grow into a fine young man. I got to marry (weeks ago) the only person who has loved me unconditionally; who also happens to be my best friend. Along with gaining a best friend I also got the honor of becoming a mother to a fantastic step son.

Paying it Forward

My experience has allowed me to be a strength to friends and family through challenges in their lives with a forgiving, open and grateful heart.

As the holidays approach, I ask that you reach out to those who may have suffered loss or something traumatic. The Holiday season magnifies the pain already felt.

I celebrate my life by volunteering EVERY chance I get and paying it forward. Make it count people! Be grateful and remember that everything changes…good and bad.

If nothing else … I am grateful for Thanksgiving left overs…. ….yup left overs!
