Susan notes: Maria Suarez spent 22 years in prison for hiding the table leg a neighbour used to kill the man who had sexually, physically and emotionally abused Suarez for five years after he hired her as a maid then kept her locked up in his home. She  is now an anti-trafficking spokeswoman.

Her story is shocking, hopeful and humbling. Read the details below the video.

I woke up feeling a bit down.

But I'm choosing not to stay that way. Instead, I'm going to turn the day around, and make my life a better place to be always.

Yippppeee!!!

Thanks to the Daily Om.

When we hide and try to be invisible and unseen by all we are only really hiding from ourselves.

At times, we've all wanted to crawl under a rock and hide away from the world.

We may have preferred to be invisible rather than let other people see us or notice that we exist.

I love to take pictures of interesting, unusual and beautiful things I find when I go for a walk or run (more of the former than the latter lately due to colds and injuries).

I particularly enjoy mornings and have found ways to make them more joyful (six ways you can to it too).
