It is inspiring to hear you aren't giving.g up. I k.ow how hard it is. I've had to alter my dreams a little to eliminate high stress situations. I have 4 disadilities But I have survived 3 years ofcollege in pursuit of my dreams. It helps me finds strength and gives me the spirit to live. I am also a single mother. I have had to learn to be kind and accepting of myself. These conditions I have are genetic and one was caused by a head injury. Leaned not to judge myself and beat myself up ov er these conditions has helped. Dreams are important. It may take longer to achieve them but it doesn't sound unrealistic.

I'm working on it, and the small steps towards the direction is exactly what I need to do but have not been doing. Also I've been going through what seems like some sort of spiritual, identity breakdown ( or breakthrough ? ) for lack of better words for quite a while. Not as in I didn't know who I was before. I think my dreams are changing a bit. Since I posted this, I have come to some better understandings of myself and what I want, and why I have been stuck. When I posted this I was in the midst of spiritual crisis, I think I am slowly moving on to awakening ( I hope ). And now I just made myself sound crazy. Meh.

The only thing keeping me stuck is me. I think I am done with that.
