IN HER OWN WORDS

M's Story

I was first sold for sex by an ex-boyfriend. I lost all sense of who I was and was overcome with feelings of hurt. I felt nasty, scared, embarrassed and completely unlovable. After it happened I lost everyone in my life that could have been a support system because they thought I chose this to happen.
 
I remember praying so hard for my life to somehow change. 
 
God brought two mentors from Priceless into my life right in the middle of this crisis. These two amazing ladies gave me the strength to go on and hope for more. It’s difficult to express how much they mean to me; there are not enough words. They came into my life, a drink of cold water after walking in a desert of abuse for eight years. Life is still hard but I am not alone. 
 
One day, I hope to be a lawyer and help fight for the rights of abused women just like myself. I want to give them a voice to speak up for justice for themselves.
