From a Note to a Novel

I Choose . . . To Live By Choice Not By Chance. To Make Changes Not Excuses. To Be Motivated Not Manipulated. To Be Useful Not Used. To Excel Not Compete. I Choose Self-Esteem Not Self-Pity. I Choose To Listen To My Inner Voice. Not The Random Opinion Of Others (Author Unknown). . I Believe That This Quote Exemplifies Who I Am. I Am A God-Fearing Woman That Has Faced Many Challenges In My Life Yet I Am Encouraged To Push Forward. I Firmly Believe In Faith Family And Pursing My Dreams. I Am Always Hopeful.
