Today, starting at 2 pm, I suddenly lost all of my happiness and energy and sat with a grim face on the couch. When my mother noticed this, she approached me and asked if I was okay, to which I replied it was nothing serious like a seizure or depression, but that I just felt tired. A while after she left, I began to cry, feeling like I was a dissapointment for her, like I was a failure. Of course, I knew that this was only a voice in my head putting me down, but it struck me hard, and it took me a while to put myself together, convincing myself, even now as I type this, that it's only a thought astray in my head; that I decide wheher or not I am succeeding, and my path is only just beginning. And now, now I am shedding a tear, but not one of anguish, no; I am shedding a tear of joy :').
