"you handled it so well." did i? because there were nights i cried when no one was around. there were moments i wanted to give up, moments when i felt overwhelmed and didn't know what to do next. from the outside, it may have looked like i had everything under control, but inside i was doing my best just to get through the day. maybe i handled it well, or maybe i just kept going because i had no other choice. either way, i'm proud of myself for making it through something that wasn't easy.
