false awakening

Quite sometime ago, 1996, I had a False Awakening I'll remember forthe rest of my life. I dreamed that I woke up, took a shower, got dressed, and rode my bike to school. Spent the entire school day as I always did, miserable, dejected and picked on. Then my alarm went off and I had to do it for real. I think I actually cried I was so miserable. It was like 4 years of ground hogs day. Miserable school, pitiful mother, and on that day I had an FA and had to cram two full days of crapfestopulusa into one. I'm smiling now as I write, feeling very blessed I no longer have to deal with that. Knowing I will never put my daughter through that kind of upbringing.

We are who we are today because of the decisions we made then. People can change, but our experiences will always make us who we are.
