I shall swallow no more.

For the last 13 years I had to swallow incredulous pain due to systemic errors in government system in which I was employed and the unfortunate ending of my long term marriage.

With both life events facing me in the same moments I came to the fight of my life to reestablish, renew, rebuild and reinvent my life path both professionally and personally. While in the same moments meet the needs of my family and my obligations and responsibilities.

I surely have succeeded in dealing with the horror and yes I swallowed the story for all those years as I did not have the luxury of doing otherwise.

Hear me say, I am taller, steadier than I have ever been in my life and I shall swallow no more.
