"I don't always know where I am going to.
But I know what I am leaving behind."
At 15 I ran away from home; it was midnight and life had been rough. I didn't know where I was going to or what I was going to do, I just knew I couldn't stay in the place I was at. Looking back now, it was the right thing to do, and I have made peace with that time and remember how hard it was for everyone. We all think that we have no choice in our moments of despair, sometimes we need to just get up and move forward, even when we cannot see the journey ahead.
