Its been a long journey....a very long journey.
Before I start this next entry, I will thank God for still keeping me here. Still standing on His promise and because of this. I am able to write this entry. Also I would like to thank all those who did and tried to help me in my darkest moments. Many thanks and much love to all my friends from both near and from afar.

As mentioned in the title, 8 stands for new beginnings. My new beginning has started. I feel encouraged. Throughout this journey I was at a point where I didn't care whether I lived or died. I held onto the little faith I did have left. I held on light inside me. I've stumbled and fell but with help I was able o rise again and keep pressing on.

Then something was revealed to me. That the will to live is strong. The will to live is essential. I was able to survive my basketball season. It didn't turn out the way it should have but as they say. Everything happens for a reason.

I've been awarded the highest award their is in high school basketball. And slowly I began to live a better life. I led my team through tough moments. But now it is time for me to move on. The battle isn't over...

I walk in faith...and nothing more. No more worries. No more stress. I just walk and whatever may happen in the future...I'll just keep walking. I'll wait when I am told to. I know who I am. I will not rfad back into darkness. The memories of those dark depths is enough for me not to go back into the darkness.

I found a greater strength within me. And I will never lose the will to live again. Surely life will get better. Yes it has its ups and downs but not only is this a new year but this is a new beginning. Not for just me but for everyone. I'm leaving now. For I have big plans and goals to accomplish, mountains to climb and people to help.

For my new journey has begun
