Dear Karen After all you gone through in life can you share some personal beattitudes?

Dear Sierra,

My Be-Attitudes:

Be aware of all that surrounds you.

Be careful not to judge others before knowing the facts.

Be cautious of those who claim they know everything.

Be able to forgive your abusers hold on you.

Be able to live despite what was taken from you.

Be able to live the life you once thought not possible.

Be able to trust your own instincts.

Be able to take care of yourself first.

Be fearless. Do not allow past pain to guide you.

Be careful to guard your heart, for it’s easy to be taken advantage of when trying to find loving relationships.

Be able to distinguish right from wrong, good from bad, and truth from lies.

Be hopeful that you will survive.

Be sure to have faith.

Be proud of all of your accomplishments, whether big or small.

Be certain to smile.

Be yourself.

Wishing you all my best!

Karen
