I ’ VE HAD A CRUMMY LIFE
Monique Vek ’ s Story ...
It seems ridiculous that I was asked to write for a magazine . One , I suck at spelling , and two , who really cares about what I have to say . I am no one special , but perhaps that is the reason right there .
I am no one special and I am also fabulously special , it took me following the crumbs to see that . Perhaps you ’ re reading this thinking something in your life sucks , it doesn ’ t feel right , WTH do I do ? I can tell you with 100 % certainty that I know the feeling , and I know how I got my own ass out of it . How ? Sex and Booze !
Ha , I am kidding , but thank you for sticking with me , if you are ready for some unusual humor , some awkward truths and how I followed the crumbs one at a time from cleaning toilets to the president of my own company , then you are the person for me . I can ’ t wait to show you your first crumb .
You too can have a Crummy Life : )
This is a pretty good time to introduce you to my words . If you are eye rolling at this moment , I say ( and imagine your mother ’ s voice ), “ stop it ! Don ’ t you roll your eyes at me , this is important , please listen to me ”. Well , okay , my mom would not of said please .
Dream it , Believe it , Live it . I am not sure when I started saying this or why , but I do believe those three words , dream , believe and live are the back bone of who I now am . I say now because I also believe that some of us need to hit rock bottom to see who we truly are ... I know I did !
