“A Walk to Gallow Hill”

Ms Mandi Photo 1

Abigail could not remember a time when she had felt more alone. She tried not to think about it, the betrayal, but it was a reality and it was happening to her. Her life had been perfect. She wondered how her husband was doing?

A single tear slowly slide down her flushed cheek. She hadn’t been feeling well lately, but this was expected. Her face felt flushed as she slowly brushed a strand of her hair from across her face.

The footsteps startled her from her gentle thoughts of a better time. She tried not to remember where she was, but it was hard as she heard the keys rattle in the lock. Quietly, she said a prayer as she felt the stirring inside of her belly.

Why did you make me do it…

Why did you make me do it…

Ms Mandi Photo 1

He yells at you. He throws things at you. He raises his hand to you. You cry out and ask “Why?”

He says, ” I love you so much…why do you make me do it?”

You question yourself. “Did I make him mad? What did I say? I am to blame.”

You are not to blame. Love does not hurt and this is not your fault.

Silent Abuse

Silent Abuse…

Ms Mandi Photo 1

I recently read a post on Face Book regarding how abuse comes in many forms. I would have to agree. Abuse may be silent, vulgar name calling, throwing things at a person, mind manipulation, mental punishments, pushing, cheating, withholding affection, and breaking their spirit.

At first it is silent, but as the years pass, each act of violence destroys a persons’ self-confidence and pride. They began to feel worthless and hopeless. They believe what their abusers are telling them; they are a piece of crap. And one day, the silent abuse becomes physical.

Until that one day, when the one being abused stands up to the abuser and says, STOP! I will not take this anymore and I am worth it!

Stand up for yourself and fight back, I did.

What is a survivor?

A survivor is someone who doesn’t let someone else push them around.

Home Sweet Home

HOME SWEET HOME
Ms Mandi Photo 1

We have all wondered how much more our economy and as people can take. The mortgage crash of 2006 has severely affected our country and other countries. So many families have lost and are still losing their homes. It may just be a home to some. It may just be hard times, some may say. However, true these statements are, the fact of it is that a house holds a lot more than merely a roof over our heads.

A house is our home. A home is a place where we raise our children. A home is a place where we keep our memories. A home is a place where we grow as a family. A home is a place to feel safe in. A home is a place where we gain our future. A house is a lot more than just a dwelling. Our home is our house.

If you are losing your home, do not give up. Write letters to your lending company. I do not mean one letter, but letter after letter after letter, until you are heard. Study your mortgage documents so you understand what the legalities of your documents mean. What kind of mortgage do you have? Was income verified and documented? Do you have a fixed interest rate or a variable interest rate? Is your mortgage owned by one investor or several investors? Find any discrepancies you can in your documents.

The Government is working to create new programs for homes in distress and the longer you can hold on to your home, means the better chances are for you to save your home from foreclosure. Fight back and do not give up. I didn’t and against all odds, I am finally home once again.
