Wow, thank you - that particular section was basically just me speaking, if I'm being honest. I'm sure that our situations are wildly different, but my life basically went off the rails when I was around 19, due in large part to poor decision-making on my part, and I've never really felt like I've been able to get back on track (sometimes I don't know if I even know where the track is anymore). Thinking about Cara and the situation she's in, it's a lot like how I feel about my own life sometimes. I'm not happy about making you cry, but I'm very happy that you can relate. <3
