About Our Chapter

As a child, I never knew why abused ever happened to me. The only thing I knew was that it caused a lot of internal pain and I ended up reacting to it through my teens with aggressive and self-injurious behavior. I never saw hope or much “healthy” love until I met staff members from the placements I lived in, my friend’s parents, teachers, and pretty much strangers who I felt knew nothing about me. The truth is, those “strangers” have impacted me. They showed me that I was a worthy human being and that I could do whatever I set my mind to. This inspired me to be that somebody for someone else. It doesn’t matter what trauma someone has been through, everyone can have a good time and just socialize over the little things in life. I may not be able to solve everyone’s problem, but I can understand to an extent of how it feels to suffer. I want to show them that it is possible to move on no matter what. I have so much love for every abused/troubled child in the world. I have enough love for any colleague, friend, and even a stranger, that crosses my path. Many people don’t realize that a funny moment, comment, or a new fun experience, can change someone’s life. It did for me and therefore I want to be a part of Chicktime. I believe by starting this new chapter in my life that I can achieve my goal of making an impact in someone’s heart.
