hello!
August 09, 2015
Welcome to my little corner of the internet!
As someone who has STRUGGLED deeply with depression, anxiety, and suicide for years, it has often been a hard choice to stay alive and endure to the next day. So this blog is my way of celebrating EVERY moment in life I've endured that darkness for--the vacations, miracles, joys, triumphs, the mundane details, the midnight donuts (YUM), the crafts....even the hard lessons, struggles, and honest reflections on mistakes.
Good or bad, every moment of my life is so important to me because I make an active choice (sometimes daily) to keep living this life. These are all of the things I would have missed. I want to celebrate those moments and that enduring spirit.
I'm not here to celebrate the end of the tunnel--I haven't conquered this mountain yet. I know I will still have those hard days and consuming thoughts. All I know is that I have felt intensely prompted for months to write, so write I will!
I know I'm not alone in this struggle. For those that are struggling, I want to talk about those good things in life that are worth holding on for. And I want to talk about those hard things so you know you aren't alone. I hope you can find solace in my life, my choices, and my triumphs.

This is the best news ever! Maybe I need to start a new blog too and we can be blog buddies again!
