Today is my 4-year anniversary.
You're probably wondering...."Amy is much older than 4 (thanks for that) so it can't be her birthday" or "Amy's never been married (again, thanks for that) so it can't be a wedding anniversary...and since she's never been married, she's also never been divorced, so it can't be a divorced anniversary". And you'd be right.
This anniversary is my new life anniversary. Four years ago today, I was hurting pretty darn bad. Four years ago today, I was in the hospital. Four years ago today, I woke up. Four years ago today, I was alive. Dang it, that still makes me cry.
My life certainly didn't change overnight. It was a long & painful process. But that day, four years ago, changed me. It was the end of all that was bad and the beginning of all that is good.
To those of you (my parents, my brothers, my friends) who were there and who still love me, still care for me, still champion me on....THANK YOU. My life is better because of you. Hell, I wouldn't be here to write this blog if it wasn't for you. Aren't you proud? :)
So, celebrate with me, on this day, wherever you are. Raise your glass to your own life. Be happy where you are.

Dang it, now I've got tears. God is so good and I give him all the credit. I know that I couldn't have been there for you if he hadn't been with me to give me the strength and courage and compassion to help you with your transformation. I certainly am proud of everything you have accomplished. I know that there have been many others who have also been there with you and to them I say, "Thank God for each and every one of you." Blessings Amy. You're journey is just beginning. What a joy it is to see you grow.
Wow! Amy, I am so proud of you and you are such a wonderful inspiration to so many - just wish we were closer to share more times.
Congratulations! and God Bless you.
