Life is what you make it some might say. But it's not quite that simple. Every day we battle with insecurities. Little voices telling us we aren't good enough or we have no goal or our expectations are too high.
Sometimes we try to achieve something and fall miserably short of our goal and suddenly are dreams are in tatters around our feet.
Some people find optimism where there is none, other people prefer to skulk in pessimism for fear if getting their hopes dashed. Some people can't see the wood for the trees whereas other people can't see the dangers that lay before them.

None of these approaches are wrong. We have all grown up in a unique fashion. A collection of incidents and memories have shaped you into the person you have become and has given you strengths and weaknesses. It's our choice what we chose to do in life. Our actions dictate what is available to us and how we can press forward.
You might feel alone sometimes that you're the only one struggling but we all are. Trying our hardest to do what we feel we must.
I think the point of this journal is that you dont have to do these things alone. We are a community and we've proven time and time again that we can stand together and help one another. You dint have to suffer in silence. You can talk to people here and they will help.
We are all just muddling through. But never truly alone. That is your choice.
