About Me

My photo
Everything happens for a reason. This is what i keep telling myself these days. With all the troubles that i had last year, i pray that i come out on top as a stronger person.

For one chapter to begin, one must be closed. I'm closing the chapter of my life where i am a victim of circumstance, and opening a new chapter where I am full of optimism. I got accepted into Sierra College's Nursing Program for Fall 2009 . I know this is the start of a better life for us. I'm extremly blessed and fortunate to have gotten into the program after only applying once. I'm taking this as a sign from whatever greater power there is out there that this is what I am truly supposed to be doing. i'm not taking anything for granted anymore.

Do i matter?

Sometimes i think that he wants to live in the olden days where the women was always submissive and always replied "Yes dear." Sometimes i think that he just wants me to agree with everything he says and never question it. I can't have an opinion without him having one of his famous trantrums. It's getting so old, and I'm so tired. He seems to have this mentality of "If you're not with me, you're against me" which is not how a marriage is suppose to work. The reality is that a couple will never always agree. I don't know if he'll ever get it. I just don't know anymore. He his always giving me false hope. He makes me think i have control over something when he's the one that wants all the control.

He finally sold his truck, and one of the first things that came out of his mouth was "i'm going to send my mom to vietnam for vacation." I just always feel 2nd in his life.

And if we want to get technical about it, my parents have given us thousands and thousands of dollars more of help compared to her. Why is he not taking that into consideration? He just loves to put his mom on a pedestal, when she does not deserve it.

I'm just on the edge right now. If counseling doesn't help then i have to go on my way. I know there is a much happier life out there for me, even if it means that i'll be alone.
