Woo, that made me cry. Again.

Sigh.... The Biggest Loser makes me cry. Nearly every week I end up bawling like a little girl. But it's so good. Really it can be crap TV at the best of times, but it's my guilty pleasure, and I love it.

I watch online, so I'm a week behind. This week the woman that lost her husband, 5 year old daughter, and infant son in a car accident went home. I don't have much to say about her. Her story will effect everyone differently. There was one thing she said though.

Today is your second chance. It is your chance to make different decisions. A chance to change your life.

Sometimes you have to be slapped in the face, picked up and thrown out of your rut, so really see what is happening around you.

I am miserable at school right now. It is HARD. But something that has escaped my notice is I am doing better than I ever could have. And I am not giving up. And that is huge.

I took that chance 4 years ago. It has been an up hill battle, but it gets easier everyday. I have challenges, huge ones, but they are different and better than the ones I've faced in the past. I can get overwhelmed and saddened by my life. Everyone can and does, however, I wouldn't trade it in. It's better than ever, and great things are coming.

Thank you.
