hey, ladies. first post. after months and months of hard work, and finally getting near my goal weight, i had an upset in my life and have spent the last two weeks eating maniacally. and not working out. i have been revolted by my reflection every day, but today was especially ass-kicking. i filled my fridge with water bottles, applied for new jobs so i can always be busy and am getting back into gear. i miss hunger and the perfect happiness that comes from feeling my bones; i miss when the only energy in my body came from my exuberance and devotion to this life.

"The road grew wilder and drearier and more faintly traced, and vanished at length, leaving him in the heart of the dark wilderness, still rushing onward, with the instinct that guides mortal man to evil"

what are some of your favorite inspirational quotes? i love ones featuring pain, suffering, struggling, overcoming, human nature, darkness, journeys, etc.
