Well...........a long time in coming but I think I have finally figured it out.......ha!
  
 I'm simply lost.
  
 I married early in life because all I ever wanted out of life was to be a "mommy".  I married a jerk and looking back all the signs were there but I didn't see them.  I married Him because He wouldn't leave me along, I married Him because the only thing I wanted was to be a mommy.  I married Him because I'd be the first married from my High School Graduation Class.....ahhh finally a "first" status for me.  So in essence I married for all the wrong reasons.
  
 I was blessed with 4 wounderful children, which of course I do not regret.  They have been my life all these years.  They turned out nicely and I'm very proud of each and every one of them!!   I love and cherish them dearly.   The oldest is now 30 and the youngest is 21.   
  
 My problem here, part of it is i am no longer that "mommy" and I have no clue what I want to be when i grow up.  I feel like I am just lost in limbo.  I don't fit anywhere.  Couple that with no self-esteem or confidence from the abuse I received in the 24 years of marriage and now living alone for the first time ever in my life.  I am simply lost.
  
 I have been divorced now for 5 yrs and living on my own for one year, as the last of the babies left the nest.   I looked into BDSM  Dominant/submission  for several reason.  I have spent alot of time in the past 4 years thinking I am submissive and this is what I need.  However when someone attempts to Dominant me, I fill with anger.  "That" is not what I want or need, I don't think, at this point in my life.
  
 I have alot of anger, doubts, hurts.  Alot of the anger is at myself for not knowing who I am or what I want, yet it is known to overfow easily at others. And ya know  I am realizing that I don't know how to find these things.  I don't know how to "fix" this.
  
 I have decided I am truely lost.
