Personal Achievements
My greatest achievement in life has been
standing by my soul-mate, Warren.
Many years ago I was at the crossroads in my life, having to
decide whether to cut my ties with Warren or to stand by him.
In making my decision, I trusted the road of love. Not knowing
where it would lead me, or whether my heart would be broken along
the way, I put my faith in love and I have never regretted my
decision.
Back then I was just twenty-two, young and innocent with little
life experience. The easiest option would have been to abandon
Warren to his illness in favour of myself. I know many people
thought I was crazy taking the road I did. But deep inside
I knew I had to trust the hand that life had dealt me, even
if the road was one of uncertainty.
When making my decision to stand by Warren, I never could have
imagined how hard and long the journey would be. If I had known
what I was getting myself into I probably would have broken down
then and there! However, the uncertainty of not knowing what
was before me forced me to develop some amazing qualities. I
found an incredible strength deep inside that has supported Warren
and myself to this day; I found the courage to never give up
despite all the fear and suffering; and I developed a ferocious
determination that has managed to conquer every obstacle in my
path. But most importantly, in taking this road my love for Warren
has continued to blossom in a way that makes everything we have
been through worthwhile.
When I reflect back upon the journey I have taken I know I made
the right decision. Trusting my heart has shown me that love
has the ability to overcome even the most impossible mountains.
Making the decision to stand by Warren was the proudest moment
of my life.
