Why Should I Keep Going

As I begin typing, I’m practically twitching with excitement knowing that this marks the 100th time I am writing a post for this blog. It’s crazy to think that this all began with an essay I wrote for an English class—an essay that allowed me to finally release my thoughts and feelings after years of not doing so.

Over the years, I let you into my life in the hopes that you would read my posts and think, “Wow, someone finally gets it,” because I know how it is to feel like no one does. I know how it hard it is to feel completely alone, and I wanted to help people feel like someone was there for them. (I hope I succeeded, so far.)

To celebrate the big 1-0-0, I wanted to cram as much meaning into a single post as possible, and I’m pretty confident that I succeeded. Although it took me a lot longer than I anticipated (Sorry about no posts recently), I came up with 100 reasons to keep going.

From struggling with getting through one more semester of school to getting through one more day, there is always a reason to keep going. I hope you find it (and more) below.

100 reasons to keep going—no matter the circumstances:

  1. You’re strong.
  2. So many people love you.
  3. You can do anything you put your mind to.
  4. Every “no” you hear only puts you that much closer to a “yes.”
