This is the first time I've spoken these words today. I am single and feeling free and good. In fact, it's the best I've felt in while.

I think I feel so good because I've found a reason to live that reaches beyond me. I have found a way to bring healing to the suffering and purpose to my own existence.

I didn't know coding would be such a profound vehicle to absolve me from shame. I've had to push myself in constructive ways and not lean into the self-sabotaging behavior that was once so familiar.

I have found the courage to share deeply emotional parts of my life and to be vulnerable without feeling weak.

I am excited about what other miracles this coding adventure will complement in my life.

With these words, I bid you...

Good night
