This weekend I attended a Self Defense class called IMPACT. There is just so much to say about it, that I'll just let you go to their website!

I feel so much better about myself. Much safer. Much more confident. And most of all, not afraid of being a victim again. Everything makes more sense now...everything my counselor has been trying to get me to cope with and move on with, finally all just clicked. I know I deserve better than what I've been getting now and in the past. I'm no one's second choice nor backup, not anymore.
I deserve:
Respect.
Love.
Passion.
To be taken care of.
To not be afraid.
To be confident.
To be strong.
To have a sense of safety.
And so much more.
Agh! I'm just so pumped up! I HIGHLY recommend taking this class to EVERY woman in the world, no matter if they were sexually assaulted or not. It's a great feeling in the end, tiring but a great accomplishment :)
I plan on getting a tattoo soon! Pics will be posted after I get it! ;)
