In her words.....
"I was very blessed to be in a place like that. There was no hard-hearted talk. They were telling me that you must never give up. They built up my hope and confidence. They gave me a sense of dignity and self-worth that I have never had. This place is more than just a shelter for battered women. It is a place of love, strength, confidence, learning to be strong and strong willed. Using your mind. It's a school to learn how to beat the odds of a bad situation and remembering there is a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow." Michelle
