A Lesson Learned the Hard Way
Have you ever been in love to the point that you lost yourself? Loved so hard that everyone around you could see what that "love" was doing to you, except you? No matter what he's done, with a little time and gifts you are back at square one. All that comes with the territory of being a ride or die chick, right? This is what happens when loving them starts hurting you, but you are too invested to let it go. This was the reality of Dee. She had devoted herself to this relationship, only to be left puzzled. As she stood in front of a judge during sentencing wondering how she got there, she finally could see what everyone else could see. She was a college student, who's life would change forever. Being raised by her grandparents and witnessing their share of relational issues, she thought that loving someone consisted of staying and working it out by any means necessary. The real fight began upon her release from prison. Can you imagine completing hundreds of applications and no one calls because you have checked a box confirming you have been convicted of a crime? Ultimately, the crime was love. Dee fights to stand strong as she learns to persevere through trials and become triumphant although the odds were stacked against her.
