The beginnings or start of something is always the hardest parts. Getting that initial push, taking that first step. This year is going to be my second chance. A second chance at school, at managing my depression, at finding my faith again, and at becoming physically fit. This time I am actually taking steps at tackling the things that hold me back most, the things that cripple me. I am going to a Christian school, I’m going to crossfit, seeing a counselor, and actually doing my work. Such simple things, but to me they are like climbing Mount Everest.
I guess I am feeling better about the future now, but this is going to be a long battle and a learning experience. This is just the start of my journey, and it’s definitely going to have its ups and downs, but I can actually say that I’m excited(!!!!), and a little bit scared, to be starting this new path to finding wellness and being “sound in mind, body, and spirit.”
