Everyone goes through experiences in life that they would like to forget. In our attempt to separate ourselves from those experiences, we tend to bury the emotions associated with them. The problem is that those emotions tend to resurface days, weeks, months, or even years later, and because we did not deal with them during the time of the experience, they are as real as they were so long ago.
As I grew, I realized that the trauma eight-year-old and eighteen-year-old Donna endured had to be addressed. Emotionally, I never left those situations until I acknowledged, confronted, and evicted the negative emotions associated with them. In this book, I share some of the emotional experiences that shaped my view of myself. Most of those views were not favorable, even though some of my experiences were not my fault. I decided that my past was not something to be ashamed of and something to hide away in a closet. I evolved and did not let my past control my future. Some of the lessons I learned along my healing journey. I am still in the process of healing, and we can heal together. Join me in evicting negative emotions because they don't pay rent.
