I woke up in the sunrise. Light was all around me and I felt as calm as a newborn baby in her mother's arms. It was a moment of enlightenment. It was a moment of truth. It was the moment that I realized nothing would ever be as important as what I am about to say. Pay careful attention to my words, for they will be the best advice you ever get. Those moments when you take in all life has to offer are the moments worth living for. You may live an entire lifetime and only have two or three of those moments, but I urge you to never give up. Do not yearn to feel connected to the universe, or you never will. The more you let life steer you, the more connected you will be. Every day is another chance to live. It is not a chance to do something right, or to do something wrong. It is not a chance to meet new people, or to fight with old friends. It is simply a chance to live life and accept what it brings you. Accept the pain with open arms just as you accept the happiness. Accept that sometimes, life makes you take the scenic route to your destination. Don't rush it. You have more time than you think. Smile often, laugh loudly, and trust that your life will bring you right where you need to go.

This is in honor of the fact that my 200 days self-injury free with only 2 relapses is in nine days. I wanted to share what I have learned through my experience with all of you.
