"Can we climb this mountain? I don't know."

It has taken me longer than it should have to get to this point, but I'm glad that I'm finally here. To put it simply, I'm happy. I'm proud of myself, of who I am right now, and I feel like a have a real purpose when I get up in the morning. I have expectations that I want to live up to. Work doesn't feel like work. So, really, what more could I ask for?

I've never been one to pause for more than a second to think about any consequences before my actions, and I'm positive that that is one of the biggest reasons why things in my life were static for so long. I relied too much on something that was safe. I had to make 293842093489203 mistakes before it actually hit me that I deserved better than the life I had. Still, I doubt that I'll become too cautious. I'd rather just jump into things and take things as they come. Sink or swim. No regrets. Ever.

Life's the best and biggest roller coaster. I'm lucky to have such great people riding along with me.
