I Am Lissette

Irene Collazo

Dear Reader, I truly hope when you read my book, you can feel my pain and my progress of who I once was and who I am now. Please feel free to judge me, that will only make me better. When opening this book, you will open my life. You will see yourself in my shoes. You will feel my pain and my struggle but also see my worth and my hustle. You will know my truth and my lies. You will fall in love repeatedly as hate comes and goes. You will read the deepest of secrets revealed. Being sexually abused at a young age forces you to grow up fast. Some start to have sex issues, Emotional problems, trust issues, they start to live in fear, they love to hard or do not love at all. Some grow a shell and others do anything it takes to be loved by people we barely even know because we feel like that part of us has been taken, or most importantly feeling like you are not good enough. Most times we miss the part of knowing who we are and do not understand because were so confused of who the person we were supposed to be. Most of the time we want to feel loved not knowing or forgetting how it feels and start to except anything that comes our way being blinded of all the lies, the hurt and the pain. We love and cherish those who take advantage of us, because any emotion is better than no emotion. I struggle daily, I hurt easily, I love hard, and I get very emotional, but I do all those things with my head held up high. I can pretend something in my life has never happened, I hate to say but I am very good at that. I hide behind a smile, and depression is my thrown, but greater I am within. I keep myself going even when I do not want to go. I am facing life as it was given to me and the more, I fight through the more I restrain myself from looking back. Never thought I would make it to where I am now. I have plans for myself and I trust in me. I am not ashamed of my past, because it has made me into a strong, independent, beautiful wise women who would love to share my life story with you. So please, enjoy!
