Today I start a new journey, a journey to freedom. You cannot control a narrative, the choice is mine now. Today I start to live my best life, with my daughter as Amanda Kirish. One way or another, a new reality is accepted on my terms and people have to be held accountable. We each reserve the right to live our best life but control is not my journey, no one controls me. I control my destiny and I move forward in honesty and with the best intentions, to live my best life here in Pasadena, with my family, friends and starting a new journey. I cannot believe how hard this has been made on me, but somehow, someway better days are coming and I will be freed from what many called a prison. I now choose freedom and I let it ring loud.
