Oh, my sweet, dear depression. I must admit, there have been days when I have loved you more than myself. You’ve given me an excuse to lay down and do nothing, you’ve given me reason to go out in my pajamas, you’ve helped me lose weight by taking away my appetite.
Then, there are days I’ve hated you. You’ve tied me down so I couldn’t get up, you’ve weighed me down so it was hard to breathe, you’ve made me believe life is not worth living.
The bad outweighs the good in our relationship. Having you around is like accepting yet another abusive, toxic person. I have no tolerance for that anymore. You try to turn myself into my own toxic person, and I’m through with being treated this way.

You’ve watched me as I cut myself, you handed me the knife. You’ve watched me as I’ve cried out for help to an empty apartment. You’ve held me when I couldn’t get out of bed, you told me it was okay to spend an entire month there.
I don’t want you around anymore. This is as hard for me as it is for you because this means I’m going to have to work at. Work to keep you away. I’m building up my walls to block you out, I’m ready for a battle.

You don’t own me, you are not a part of me. I choose who I want to be and I do not want to be Depression. I am Elizabeth, and I am beautiful on the inside and out.
You, my sweet, sweet depression, well, frankly, you can go back to hell. Right where you came from.
-Liz

While drinking coffee, I created Positively Wild. What other way is there to get work done? Must have caffeine!
My Mission:
To inspire. To be Positively Wild! Here, there are no damn rules! We drink coffee at midnight and eat dinner for breakfast! Okay, maybe no dinner for breakfast, I like my bacon. Anyways, I believe in Namaste'. I believe in positive mind means positive vibes. Most importantly, I believe in all of us being put on this earth to love and encourage. We all have something about us that makes us unique. There is something in our souls that say, we're passionate about this one thing, or many things. I want to encourage you all to let your light shine through. Forget all the jerks that said what you love isn't worth it. Fight for being you! I'm going to share with all of you how I express who I am. Encourage you to put thought into how you look, not for others, but yourself. Although, I want to dive deeper than the surface, how you look is one way to express your true self but also not being afraid to love your mind and share that with others is a great blessing. Something I'm even still striving to overcome.
A Little About Myself:
I love coffee. I love traveling. I love yoga, and I love being free. I packed up and moved last year from Arizona to Tennessee. Drove across country by myself, and created a new life with my boyfriend. It's a lifestyle change that is changing the way I act and the way I dress, I love it. My style has gone from heels 24/7 to something more casual each day. Light and airy, with a hint of bohemian/badass rocker. It's an experiment. I'm a Christian, a sinner, and happy. God forgives all. I'm diving deeper into my artistic creative side to myself, and I've got the space to relax and clear my mind. I rescued a black lab/pitbull mix from the side of the road. His name is Arizona. And I recused a little orange tabby kitten on a cold snowy night. His name is Leo. They're my little fur babies and I love them!
I'm excited to get to know all of my readers, I'm very into communication and will absolutely love to hear from you all! I'm excited to start this journey.
