sudden strength

day 9 of my cleanse is coming to a close. with that being said, i can proudly admit that this health challenge has empowered me in other areas of my life. i started to discover how strong my willpower is and how beautiful it is to be supported by family and friends. up until this point in life, i've hid from reality in a sense and coming face to face with that was a little frightening. i think about the excuses and lies i told myself to feel less guilty about eating the wrong things or drinking every night and i see now that i am my own worst enemy. i realized if i'm going to make the change, the time is NOW. why wait? each day is sacred and should be cherished. people need to live day to day! it's crucial to see that putting off what is important to you because you don't have the courage to face it is only setting you back further from what you want most out of life.

i'm beginning to see how lovely life can be if you make conscious choices to color it the way that suits you best. happiness is not a far-fetched concept and you don't have to look far to find it. start with yourself and then work forward.
