I was hurt, distraught and broken. Regardless, I refused to give up, so again I began to look around; I started wondering how I could get up and out of the valley, the gutter, and overcome such a dark place. I started to remember that if I believed in God, my higher being, I had my health and strength. I had my right mind. There was nothing I couldn’t do. I reminded myself that no matter what I was going through, what it looked like, God had the final say in my life, for I gave my higher being complete control, but I would act. Four Shades Of Grey was just a dark zone that I decided to fight my way out of, for life is meant to be lived to the fullest.
