I came, I saw, I conquer, I win!

Fragrance

As I enter into the brightly natural sunlit room I walk over the nearest window and open its pane. The bouquet of an aromatic combination of honeysuckle mixed with just a hint of musk poured into the room with a great subtle ease. The savory smell engulfed my senses creating an intoxicating balm sending me off into another place in time. Then the window unexpectedly slammed shut severing my attachment to the fragrant fragrance. And im back to reality.

My 2017

The year was filled with so many ups, downs, ins, and outs. It was filled with happy days, just ok days, sad days, and down in the dumps days. 2017 has been one hell of a roller coaster for me where I truly was hit head on with my depression and was unable to fully battle it on my own. Out of all the years that i’ve avoided being prescribed antidepressants mostly because of the stigma behind it but more so because i refused to allow it to defeat me i finally gave in. It has been an adjustment for me but i can say that i am glad that i made the choice. Being on an antidepressant has aided me in managing my depressive symptoms and i do see the difference. I am now praying that 2018 will be a better year for me with new ventures and new opportunities. I am now ready to face the year with a new perspective on life. #wishmeluck #herestoanewyear #herestoanewstart

My Everyday

Everyday is a struggle when you're dealing with depression. I find myself being one of the functioning depress where I am able to go through my daily routine however as soon as I hit my front door I seem to just shut down. By then I just want to go to sleep until I have to wake up the next day and do it all over. I'm not on any medication and I don't see a therapist so I am and have been dealing with this all on my own however I think it's time that I seek out help before I lose all control.

Embedded pain is what drives me, but it has also molded me into someone that I am not; yet it has become my way of survival in this life of mine.

Domestic Violence

So, quite a few ppl view this topic very differently. I on the other hand see domestic abuse as someone causing harm to the other person whether it be physical, emotional, and/or verbal. There are too many cases of this occurring in today's society where many experiencing it feels at a lost or as if there is nothing they can do to stop it. Even perhaps feel that they have nowhere else to turn when in fact there are plenty of avenues that can provide assistance with these situations. One just has to speak up and speak out.

I will love myself despite the ease with which I lean towards the opposite.

Elevate yourselves and your minds from the negativity that may surround you. Think and create a peaceful environment that you and those who share the same aspirations as you can enjoy in the days to come!

Take the time to just appreciate yourself no matter what!

Suicide has become so common in our world today especially among our youth. It is unfortunate that this is what it comes down to with our children today. There has to be a way to prevent this from occurring amongst our young adults. They have to know that there is more to life then the option of suicide; however I can understand how that may be an option or an only option to take during these times. Society has implanted such a strain on the minds of the young. Children are no longer Children but rather taking on adult roles dealing with the stressors of life at an early stage in life. We must come together somehow and take a stand to reach our children/youth of today and let them know they are not alone. There is help and that they are loved.
