Over 5 years ago I started this book, and 4 years ago I stopped updating it. Many of the quotes I wrote came from lived experiences and were actual thoughts that went through my mind during those times. Not only did this become an outlet for me to help me express the things I was feeling, but I also wanted people to see that they are not the only ones that have deafening thoughts going through their mind. As with all things in life, nothing last forever and today, 5 years after starting this, I posted one last quote that I found sitting in my drafts. The person I am now is not the same person I was 5 years ago and the baggage I carried is no longer something I drag around. Although it took some time, I was able to get better. There was a silver lining after all the dark clouds. If you're reading this and can relate and identify with these quotes then I want you to know that it does get better. Don't be afraid to let people in, don't be afraid to ask for help and don't be afraid to live life. Life is worth living and although it seems dark at the moment, there is always light at the end of the tunnel.
