the hurt and disappointment that she has experienced in life. Everyone has experienced some level of disappointment from someone else but many black women have taken this on personally and have stop reaching out in order to avoid rejection.

enneagram I took last week to get a better understanding of my personality was really fun and interesting. After taking the enneagram two times and the results that I go back after taking it was type three winged two and that is known as the achiever.

Volleyball team as a senior, but I felt defeated. As a player for three returning years, I was heartbroken as I was torn between hatred for my coach and fellow teammates, but mostly self-loathing. The inward look I took from being an athlete with a strong head and quick reactions furthered to obtain a negative outward look. When struggling with the fact of living a life of regular dedication and love driven by sweat, time and even tears, was never going to be from the same roots as before. Coming face
I wrote a letter to my ex-husband and friend, Calvin. Foremost, Calvin was elated that I chose to address a letter to him with news of my life in the future. However, I was apprehensive to share my projected life with Calvin as it also contained my new marriage to Ed as I called my new husband.
