I have every reason to be excited. Things are finally looking up in places where only a few months ago I saw nothing but hopelessness. I feel like God is giving me a glimpse of what he's doing and where he's taking me. This whole stretch of the journey has been two years in the making.

Even with all the excitement going on around me, I'm still struggling with...myself. Right now, the fight isn't against other people who would tear me down, but my attempts at destroying myself from the inside.

My insecurities are at an all time high and they don't seem to be falling anytime soon.
