30 days. Is that really enough time to change your life? To become a different person? To better yourself? To tear yourself down and then rebuild yourself?

I think so.

My entire life changed in seconds when my brother was struck by a car while riding his bike home from the bus stop, he was 15. After that I started to mark my life off in 30 second increments, then I moved to hours, then 24 hours, and I have finally settled on being able to handle my life 30 days at at time. My life has changed immensely since that day and I do not know if I will ever be okay, but every 30 days I am a little bit different. I figured writing could be my therapy and outlet, what I’ve learned, what has brought me joy, and what I find to be to devastating for words.
