Prologue

I have spent the greater part of my adulthood in a battle. Sometimes the battle has been with other people, at times with myself and sometimes with God. All the while, I have sat back hoping and praying for a rescue. Little life rafts have come my way but never leading anywhere out of the never ending whirlpool. I have only succeeded in feeling insignificant and worse. 

I am broken - in every sense of the word. What is even sadder is that I feel like that old nursery rhyme about Humpty Dumpty only I look like him too. This is not me. This is a shell of who I am. 

My new journey breaking free of all that binds me starts today. If you are one of the very few I invite to read this - I hope you will also start the journey to break free of what binds you. 

I am broken but I am breaking free! May the Lord bless this journey abundantly.
