HOPE

I found an old journal tonight.  I forgot how terrible my first few years of college were for me.  I spent my first two years at a Baptist college.  Please don't even get me started on religious schools.  I love Jesus... so much.  He has the power to rescue, for sure, but I still would not recommend ANYONE to go to a religious school... This journal I found reminded me of just how hard it was for me to go to a close-minded school being open-minded me.  I was so depressed, hurting, wanting to not even exist anymore.  It hurts me to read it.  It hurts me to remember who I was.  Here is the thing, guys... I didn't die.  I want every one of you to know that no matter what you are going through, rescue is possible.  I AM STILL ALIVE.
