"That we fear the worst to protect ourselves from the times we were caught by surprise." That is so true, Alexa, and I feel so seen reading this sentence, thank you <3

I've been having a terrible summer, fighting negative thoughts at every turn and feeling like I was sinking deeper by the day. Yesterday morning, I was crying over my morning pages when suddenly my pen took me in a totally different direction. It reminded me of the people who love me and how simple it would be to be comforted by them. I started looking up ways to arrange a trip to my hometown soon. Right now, I'm still feeling raw, but I'm doing much better. I've chosen my own adventure. I'm not alone. I am loved. That's everything.
