Rysin,

If you weren't feeling the "downs," you wouldn't be human. Just don't keep yourself there long, okay? Have patience with yourself.

This journey - like most others - is about progress, not perfection. You are growing stronger every day, even if it doesn't feel that way at times.

When you're down, those are the times that you REALLY need to force - FORCE - yourself to GAL. Go for a run. Call a friend to get together. I promise you'll be glad you did.

Marathons are long and hard.

Hang in there, soldier.
