Gone

July 1, 2019

The feeling of absolute despair.

Like you're under water trying not to drown.

All that seems to be going on in your fuzzy mind is--

Why?

But before you decide to take that first inhale of water,

Know that it only takes one person, one idea, and one shift to change it all.

Take that leap of faith.

Because, why not?

Before you go, I ask of this from you:

Go on a journey.

You will find the answer to that 'why?'
