I have been writing in a journal on an almost-daily basis since I was 17 years old. This is a record of me going through each entry from the beginning, and commenting on the me from fifteen years ago.

You know what’s happened lately? I have become fulfilled. Don’t ask me how or why exactly, it snuck up on me too. I was just sitting here, thinking how good classes were, how I’m writing every night. I get published in the school newspaper, I’ve become fascinated by I girl that I might have known before and I realized, this is the best I’ve been in a long while. I like it here.

YES!!! Finally, I’ve turned it around. All it took was getting out there, and finding my place. Sure, there’s many more freak outs and dark clouds that will come, but it’s nice to hear that I finally just got in my groove. If you’re down, try something new. It works.
