i’m never confident about myself and it’s affecting those around me that i love. i just don’t think feeling bad about myself is worth it. i mean, we’ve all got a limited time frame here, so what’s the point of it all if i don’t enjoy it to the fullest?

How I did it: with a car *snicker*my husband got transferred from virginia to washington state. we took two weeks to get all the way. we pit-stopped in california for a few days to visit his family. i also got mugged in new mexico. not too fond of that state anymore. regardless, it was a beautiful and humbling adventure.
