I never realized how much I have changed other peoples life. Just getting up and getting myself going is a challenge sometimes. It wasn’t until my friend brought it to my attention that I was a strong woman who has lived an extrodinary life.
Last year I began a journal that I wanted to post in the future. It was a story to explain how I have dealt with so many challenges and yet haven’t totally given up yet. It was this time last year that I was plugging along and getting the words out before my memory would fog up again from the S&A (stress and anxiety) of my situation.
I was so excited because I wanted to finally explain why I was the way I was. Trust me when I say growing up in a bicultural world was like taking a roller coaster ride with a side of the scary stuff. In junior high I felt like crap because I was so different. It never really occurred to be I was different from everyone else. Which is why I go by Molly and not Mahlet. That’s right my full name is Mahlet Sebhat. I am a very unique person who has lived an even more unique life.
My dream someday is to write a story and publish it. Weather its chapters of my life or just a full on memoir I haven’t decided yet. But one thing I know for sure. My blogs are my way of standing up for myself. Also a bread trail for my son to someday find me when he is ready and curious. That’s right I am a mother in her 30s.
I hope you enjoy these blogs. I hope that you can look up my Facebook page and show support with a like or follow. See this is my therapy in recovering from life. My words are my own unless I share others works. I am @SaraMahlet on Twitter and also on my Facebook Page. Look for Sara Gamachu, blogger. That’s me! I am also planning to share some of the pictures that I took from my travels in Ethiopia. It will be on my page also in a nice album.
So from me to you have a wonderful and safe 2018!
