I don't think in any year of my life, have I had a song that strikes me so much, that means so much to me, that speaks louder of who I am than Ellie Goulding's song. Never has a piece of music been so...important to me. No matter how many times I have listened to this song, in a shop, on the radio, or even from my own control, I never get tired of it.

Depression is something most people suffer from at one point of their life and it is something that has followed me since I was a little girl. It brought me to extremely dark and rather frightening states of mind...

...and yet, a voice always told me to keep going and appreciate the little things that happen.

I would not be able to love the hell out of my siblings or be able to spend most of every weekend in the company of a wonderful, beautiful man whom I love and am thankful for, more than he'll ever know. Most importantly I wouldn't be able to create worlds..and learn new things.

and even when those days are gone, I'll look back on them extremely happy that I lived long enough to see and experience them.
No depth or degree of darkness that can ever take that away from me.
