Day 7: Someone who has made your life worth living for.

Excuse me, in case this answer comes out like a snobby, self obsessed feminist, but I will say me. Obviously me, and everyone I love, but lets face it, trying to live your life through others just isn't going to cut it in the long run. I come from a family with a history of depression and if I've learned one thing it is that trying to find happiness through others is just a bandaid on the present. Being happy in yourself and what you do is what makes life worth living. For me it is feeling like I am learning and living, teaching and loving, breathing easily. Preferably I am doing this with the people I love but sometimes I enjoying experiencing things on my own. So here is to appreciating yourself, those who have helped shaped you and those who still share experiences in your life. Below a picture of me entertaining myself rummaging for shells in the sand.
