Absolutely agree with you.
My childhood was absolutely horrible, and things haven't always been much better as an adult at times, but every set back or difficult time, I just remind myself that there is always someone worse off, everybody has bad times, I can and will survive this and I remind myself that all those experiences made me who I am and got me where I am today.
And so alltogether now, and in the words of Xtina................. "It makes me that much stronger.............. thanks for making me a fighter!"
