with it with the journey 's end in mind because that would be overwhelming. Instead, by breaking down any task into manageable steps, I don 't have to wait for success at the journey 's end, but rather create a series of small successes along the way.

New Years’ of 2014 It all started on December 31, 2013. I had decided to bring in the year with a few friends, who at the time I thought were my true friends.

While I was practicing, I…

One thing I’ve learned through this semester that it is actually okay to eat meals by yourself and walk to…
