On November 11-13, 2017, I flew on a plane for the first time by myself. It was even better than flying with someone. It made me want to take more trips alone and even look more forward to moving out on my own!

Rape allegations - The Court Of Public Opinion - I Support Nick Carter
If my brother’s addiction taught me anything, it’s that everyone deserves a second chance in life until the day they die. He pissed me off to no end at times and I hated the addict he became, but I always loved my brother and still do. No matter how angry I got, I always had hope that he’d change his life around.
His name was Nick. Now, the only other Nick “in my life” is being dragged through the mud for something that supposedly happened years ago. He had much of the same struggles as my brother. He’s a recovering addict with a past.
Let me be clear; I’m not excusing any rapist or sexual assaulter.
Nick could have done what he’s being accused of, for all I know. However, when someone cleans up their life and gets their act together in the ways Nick has, it is a damn shame when their past is thrown back in their face. It’s even more of a shame when it’s the latest fad to do it. I don’t believe half of the “victims” who speak out lately because there are many holes in their stories and many just want a quick and pretty penny. So it isn’t just because the latest story has hit one of my favorite people.
Have we gotten to such a hateful time in this world where we’ve forgotten about forgiveness and the chance to change? Nick has changed for the better, as far as I’m concerned. I’m proud of the man he’s become and I’m proud to support him.
