Coping with change

Change can sometimes be a good thing or it can be a bad thing. I like look at change as a good thing, because I feel as though it creates obstacles in your life sometimes. When you learn how to cope or hurdle that obstacle I think that it will make a person feel better about themselves as well as making them stronger.
I remember a major change that I had to go threw but did not want to because I was afraid. I was married for almost 6 years and I had always said to my self that who I married and who I had my children with I would spend the rest of my life with regardless. Well I got pregnant with my first child I was very excited but Lance was not, he only grew angry as if he had turned into a monster in one second. When I told Lance I was pregnant that was the first time he had ever laid his hands on me, and I thought that it would be the last.
Well 6 year, 3 kids, and years of counseling and still no change that is for that better , things only seemed to get worse. The day I was going into have my son I said to myself, "Stephanie you are stronger than this ad you need to protect your kids" so that day i decided I was leaving and it was going to be soon. 1 week after having my son Lance left to go out of town and I knew it was time for me and my children to go so I packed our stuff and left. I never once looked back.
My point is this I feel as though a change is for a reason. Leaving an abusive relationship was hard - it was a struggle - but it saved my life as well as my children's. Change has not only made me a stronger person but it has helped me to value my life a lot more.
