Think Like A Queen

Think like a queen. A queen is not afraid to fail. Failure is just another stepping stone to greatness.
-Oprah Winfrey

No other quote managed to pull me through the latter half of 2015 as this one did. This time last year, I was on-top of the world. I had an awesome job working in politics, I was living with in a beautiful home in safe, friendly neighbourhood in Toronto. I was meeting people.

And then I lost it. And I had no one to blame but myself. I had failed.

For the past six months, I closed into myself. For someone who put so much of her self-worth into her job title, my world crashed and burned. I thought about suicide nearly everyday. I even drove to an abandoned Fort Erie mall in the middle of the night - ready to 'put the pedal to the metal' and drive head first into the building. I didn't - perhaps because I was a coward, but also because I knew the pain I would put the three people who loved me the most through would be monumental.

2016 is my fresh start. My fresh start, and my last chance to live the life I always wanted to live. And I'll be tracking every step of it here.
