I can't believe it is over

School has been a challenge for me. I was the child that was not supposed to make it more or less succeed in life. I never went to high school I was one of the "Bad" kids. I was in a fight every week, suspended, arrested, and even locked up a few times. No one really knows me. I dropped off the face of the earth 1996 the year my son was born; I vowed never to put him through what I went through as a child. Anyways, I have been through so much this year. The beginning was so stressful everything just seemed to go wrong. I finally ended my 15 year relationship with my "baby daddy." I have been on my own for most of my life, well since I was 14. I never thought I was good enough to go to school. My ultimate thought was that I would end up in prison, but God is good. He turned my life around and showed me a better way. I went to college by accident. I never thought I was going to graduate but this is my second graduation. First was my Associate's degree now my Bachelor's. Sometimes it feels like I am living a dream; this does not seem real or even like my life. If I could only tell people my life story from which I came to where I am now they would be amazed. I just want to say for all those out there who never thought that they could make it in life you can. I am living proof that God is real and performing miracles everyday and He is not finished with me yet!!!
