"I feel like living the beginning of my new life that I always wanted but did not know about it"
I would love to thank all of you so much. Before this program, I was not okay. I struggled to get through life on a daily basis, to live up to expectations I had from myself and others. I was depressed for a long time, did not know who I am and some days I simply wanted life to end. That's what I have been dealing with. That's what I wanted to figure out. This might sound strange but I took this journey as a therapy above everything else. I tried talking about my problems with many good friends and family members many times but nothing made the great impact I hoped for. When I learned about this possibility I thought maybe the best way how to get out of that dark place of growing up and getting to know my own self is to communicate with my own self. So I ended up here, in the embrace of John, Missy and the Lifebook community. And what an amazing hug that was! So here I am now. I finished Lifebook. I did it! I am not going to lie, I had problems finding the time and sometimes even motivation because I was and part of me still is afraid of change. Change is something new but at the same time something I desire for so much. And after all of this, I can say I feel great. I feel like living the beginning of my new life that I always wanted but did not know about it. To John and Missy: You do not know me, maybe you never will but I can say quite frankly that you saved me from walking the path of destruction and till the end of my days I will be thankful for all of this. You are amazing human beings and you are my inspiration. PS. After taking the photo I learned that the inverse peace sign which I show in the photo can be considered as an offense in some countries of the world. This truly was not my intention and I just did not know about this information at all.
