My life has been a rollercoaster throughout the last 16 years... From being born into a seemingly perfect family, to being arrested for my own personal blindness. From not knowing how to be angry at anyone, despite my past, to learning to hate. From the innocense of childhood, to promiscuity and recovery. I have seen many highs and may lows. Many sucesses and many failures. My life is that of which many don't see this day, their 16th birthday. Several times in my life, I've been asked "Why are you still alive?" or been told "You should have died/are going to die." Then I have been asked "How do you handle/survive things like that" and told "you are a fighter/survivor" neiter title I claim.
