I Am Not the Person I Used to Be Stories of Experiences

I've made ALOT of stupid choices in my life. I don't even want to get into all of it . I didn't think things through. I did whatever I wanted at the moment and it was usually wrong. Now, I regret most things that I did, even though I...

Once a child of  light and love, and laughter. Life has now dulled the very senses.
   Many years of diappontments, heart break, one after another, trapped in worlds where the life gets sucked out, leaving, running, moving, hiding...

Well, I was born a boy so that IS certainly different!!

*giggles*

.....and now I have a nice 'rack', as some men would put it!!!

I'm flighty and flirty.....much more confident in myself than I used to be....

Around the age of 15
I had reached my peak

when a solution was needed indeed,
to lose some weight i had to seek
escape from the means in my life
and become normal in the eyes of the rest

The words of the ones who thought of me less...

Before I venture into the meat of this Mother's Day casserole, I'll admit I overanalyzed where to post this. This IS the appropriate group for this story, but I am not-so-subtly hoping that my core group, the ILIASM'ers, will find it...

I once heard from a man say that people don't change. I disagree as change occurs in every second and every cell in our body.
Just as the river it never stays at the same time or location.
Perhaps I'm an optimist but all we have to do...

Most people from high school barely recognize me, or don't at all.

It's kinda hilarious considering I was the only natural redhead in their class and that's a pretty identifying feature.

Mostly it's because I learned to stand up for...

I am a completely different person, its amazing what age does to change a person and of course circumstances.

I am no longer the person I used to be in that I'm no longer a callous, cruel, distrustful, untrustworthy, unkind, racist, fat, ignorant, annoying, obnoxious, unpopular, unlikable, manipulative, bullying child, who was even at times...

All I have to do is look back at pictures of myself a year or two ago and I laugh
Not because it's funny but out of disbelief really
I'm so different now to how I was back then
I'm still the person inside but a lot of things about...

He gave us a glass pipe to use. He said he had another one. He was my cousin.

I could tell he had used it previously for meth, by the way the end of the little glass bulb was stained jet black. I didn't ask questions, I just accepted...

Over the years I've changed I use to be a girl that you could walk on but not any more one word and I will destroy your snobby little perky face.you can't hurt me any more I will fight back and I will hurt you as much as you have hurt...

Ever woken up and realized you are not the person you used to be???

You used to be so happy and cheerful about everything but now it just seems like you need someone buyout side to make you feel that happy again.

The only problem is...

I woke up and decided one day that enough was enough. I was just hurting myself and couldn't take it anymore. I got so sick and tired of letting men use me all for the name of getting attention. I'll admit that it's partly my fault...

When I saw this experience I immediately thought about my past, all the years that have passed and continue to pass, the different stages of life I have been through already. Seem pretty crazy that so much time has passed and I grew up...

I am changing... because of everything I have experienced..
Though I have something in the past that is very beautiful or wonderful for me, I need to strive to be a better present.. and goal for the Best future.

After my fucked up past I changed. I don't let people tear me down. I have a reason to stand up and fight again. I have an amazing husband and kids. Yeah I get irritated with them at times. But I love them all. They are my reasons for...

Hi, i am new at this, meaning new at chatting about anything. My continued frustration with my fibromyalgia is what brings me here. At the age of 35 i quit baseball, something i had done for summers since i was 5 yrs old. Something wasn...

I'm not sure at this point but I can tell you this, it felt good. No I didn't do...that. What I did was get to talking with a very young employee of mine, female about pies. Yes, apple pies to be exact. Turns out she loves them as much...
