I have been saying that I want to start a blog for the longest time. I would tell myself everyday that today is the day that I will start, but I never made it happen. As I think about the past few years and how much I have grown I am so happy that I put it off for so long.
If I would have started this blog years ago it would have probably been called something like "I hate my daughter's dead beat sperm donor" or "N*ggas ain't shit!" I would have probably had a large following of bitter women who are still bitter and angry at the world; those are not the fans that I want. This blog is not the place for women who "hate their baby daddy's", this is the place for mothers who are raising their children alone but still smiling with their heads held high.
I was the leader of the male bashers a few years ago. I would go on twitter and subliminally bash Zahara's dad any chance I could hoping that he would one day see it (he later told me that he was reading.)
I currently follow a few women on twitter that are single and pregnant. Every time they tweet about their current situation I am reminded of what I went through. I admire some of these women. They are so strong and they never have bad things to say about the father of their unborn children. I wish I could give these ladies hugs but since I can't do that I will give them hope that things will get better.
You are allowed to be angry, you are allowed to be bitter, and you are damn sure allowed to cry, but never sit around feeling sorry for yourself. Don't HATE anyone, not even your child's father. Keep LOVE in your heart and everything else will fall in place.
