My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Mental health and suicide prevention

Earlier this year, I made the decision to take a break as I was at the end of my rope. I was mentally exhausted and needed help. I felt like everything in my life had turned to shit and there was no way possible to fix it. I was in a pretty bad spiral.

I took a leave from work, which in itself has it's own roadblocks and financial issues, but I was able to transverse this throughout the summer months by focusing on wellness. It was probably evident that walking and photography is a part of that plan. The other portion was therapy. Which has been amazingly tremendous. We can get lost in the vacuum of our thoughts, so it is nice to have help.

The decision to take a break and talk to someone was extremely difficult to make, but in hindsight, it was the best thing to do and I suggest to anybody having issues, to reach out and get help. Check your work benefits. Most companies are on board with Mental Health messaging and provide coverage. Talk to your doctor and let them know how you're feeling.
Get the ball rolling and get talking. All of your words are worth listening to.

So this year, I'm doing this for myself, because I'm still here to do it for.
