One of the worst feelings in the world is waking up and wondering how you're going to make it through the day. If you've ever felt this way, you are not alone. In life, we all face heartbreaking challenges designed to test our strength. Those are the moments that define us.

When you hit your breaking point, and life seems unbearable, don't give up hope. There is happiness just around the corner. You just have to keep going and believe that somehow, someway it will get better. Relief, healing and answers will come.
