Personal Reflection
The body gives out. It grows tired, it breaks, it betrays us when we least expect it. I’ve felt that firsthand. But spirit—spirit has a way of carrying us when nothing else will. It’s the thing that drags you to your feet after the body has nothing left. The world measures strength in muscles, speed, and stamina, but I’ve come to see it’s the unseen resilience—the stubborn, unyielding spirit—that matters most. That’s the strength no one can take from you.
Reflective Prompt
When has your spirit carried you farther than your body thought possible?
Memoirs of Madness 
Such a good one! That point in my life happened at the tail end of 2017 and lasted until March of 2018. I ended up losing my aunt, then my guinea pig a week later. I was also going through my last semester of college, so I was completely gone emotionally and mentally already. In February of 2018, my lovely grandma passed away, then we had to put my dog down a couple weeks after that. It was purely survival at that time, I was struggling to eat and sleep so I grew quite weak physically, but I still managed to push through and make it over this crevasse. I would never choose to go through that again but man, I learned so much about myself and those around me in this chapter.
