She had questions about some family history, which started a conversation about trauma, therapy, etc. After a long conversation, this is what she sent me. I'm crying.

Two and a half years ago I was distraught. I felt like I had no direction, was stuck in a dead end job, and lonelier than I'd like to admit. I decided to go back to school and enroll in community college. Today, I'm with the love of my life, I'm attending a top ten college in the U.S., and I'm studying abroad in Ireland next fall. I hung this above my bed to remind myself every day how far I've come and how far I still want to go. Life isn't a race, it's a marathon, and we should be thankful for all of the little things that remind us how bright we can shine if we take it one day at a time ❤️

W. W. R. D = What would Reddit Do. I want to thank you all for being there ever since I created my reddit account 3 years ago. When I posted random pictures of my paint pours, your responses were always uplifting. When I posted questions, looking for any type of guidance during some of the hardest times in my life, your responses helped me get through it. Even the mean responses gave me comfort knowing that someone was there, reading what I had to say, it made me feel like I wasn't alone. So thank you for ALWAYS being there. I know I can always count on you.
