Day 56: Give Yourself Permission to Be Happy

Day 56: Give Yourself Permission to Be Happy

As the oldest child who grew up in an alcoholic/dysfunctional family, I took on a lot of responsibility. I took on the emotional burden of the problems my mother suffered through and needed to find a way to make a path for myself. I threw myself into school, work, and creativity.

I survived by using my imagination to dream up new worlds, creatures, and places.
