I have just realized that I will no longer be an option in someone else's life.  I have spent the better part of my life being an option in other people's life while I have made them a priority in mine.  I know now that it is better to be alone than and happy rather than be with someone and be miserable.  I am making myself a priority in my life.  Going to school and getting my degree will be my main priority.  I have been fortunate to been given the opportunity to go to college.  I have made the conscious choice to make a difference.  To accomplish this I need to be focused and be ready to make difficult choices that will affect the rest of my life.  So here goes chapter one in my new life.
