I will not quit.

Monday, March 30th 2009

"Do you ever get frustrated because things are moving too slowly in your life? Many people don't realize that building a foundation for success does not happen overnight. It is a slow process in which you are constantly working and learning. After all, that foundation must remain strong, even in times of failure or crisis. This takes time! You may have to remind yourself that "failing" is only failure if you quit; otherwise it's a learning opportunity. So don't worry if your life...

Never hurt the ones you love

Sunday, March 29th 2009

The snow falls swiftly and silently outside my window. Ripping spring away from my grasp once more. Along with the loss of my sunshine, I, once again, have failed. I cannot control my binging.

Part I: The battle was lost before it was even begun.

My heart is telling me to stop. My tummy is telling me I'm way past full. My brain is telling me to find something else to do, running through the lists upon lists I've made of what to do instead. Telling me to do something, anything - anything but what I'm doing now.

But it's too late. I can't stop it. The binge has begun and I know not when or where it will end. I do know it will end in shame and disgust. A sink full of dirty dishes. A garbage can full of empty wrappers and con...
