::nothing is permanent::

This school year marks a big turning point in my life. My last year of college before I am out in the real world, starting my career. Looking back, sometimes I don't know how I managed to get here. It was such a long and difficult road and I wouldn't have made it if it weren't for an amazing support system of friends and family. That being said, I truly feel like I have reached a new and exciting place in my life. I am determined to make this the best, most healthy year of my life thus far. I said goodbye to 6.6 lbs and I feel so much better already. I cant remember the last time I felt this motivated to accomplish anything. Depression has ruled my entire adult life and I am ready to conquer this debilitating condition. It will always be a kind of shadow, lurking around the corner, but now I am better equipped to fight back. There will be weak moments, but nothing is permanent. I am ready to soak up all the wonderful things this life has to give me!
