The reason I started writing this blog was to offer insight, acknowledgement, and awareness.
I hoped to create something beautiful from an ugly situation.
As I've mentioned before, I would rather not be writing about this.
I would rather not be sharing this private part of my life so publicly.
I write because it feels too important to stay silenced, despite the topic I am writing about being completely depressing.
I write because sharing your struggles so openly is healing and absolutely terrifying at the same time.
It's so overwhelming to contain these thoughts of hopeless, that writing them out gives them a purpose.
I need to write.
I need to see my heart break, but know that while it's breaking, it's also gathering courage and strength...or so I am told.
Some days I can feel it. I can feel bits and pieces of my life become more beautiful through the pain.
I believe in optimism.
I believe in hope.
I believe both are essential.
I also believe in reality.
Today, I am not sure which side wins.
