The last six months have been very trying for me. I suffered a miscarriage, my engagement ended and I lost my job of eight years. Needless to say, I was facing many challenges. After shedding some much needed tears, I concentrated on changing my thoughts. While I've never taken on the victim role, I did ask the question: Why me? In some cases questions were answered, but in others they were not. In either case, I didn't let my circumstances define me, I moved on. Positive thinking is a way for me to conquer any fears or challenges that I encountered over the years. I became my personal cheerleader.

No matter how you became a single mom, whether through divorce, a planned or unexpected pregnancy, we are all in the same boat, we are single moms. While there are only a total of thirty verses and affirmations, I hope that they provide a powerful impact and some comfort to you.
