to me there is a lot I regret but I have learnt so much and instead of them locking me up they gave me a serious choice in life which really helped turn my life around...this all does not make me a horrible person I was really abused heavily and lacked total awareness of right and wrong and totally lacked any sense of impulse control and to me it never even occurred to me that I could be doing something wrong or that could hurt people - I guess I made it out okay on the other side and have grown from it all and can laugh did not get caught for 99% of it so was a pretty successful petty thief in my teenage years but people think I should hide myself when I have not done anything wrong in like over 20 years and feel ashamed about me or my choices when they do not look at their own actions or grow as a soul or even question who they have hurt so I feel strongly that I was mentally not alright but I am super okay now and a true preacher and role model ! I am a success story cause I have chosen not to inflict abuse on others all day endlessly but to honestly help others through my path and that is a very great thing but I have to admit there is a lot I am like wtf over lmao it will all come out eventually but I dont care I have a valid defense over it all and am a really good person so not too worried hahaha have friends in high places that I made laugh a few times :)
