As I was standing on my porch around twelve in the morning, breathing in the cold air and breathing out the clove smoke I realized something rather simple about myself.

Only I can hold myself accountable.

I am a person of need. All of us, whether we choose to accept it or not are. I need to be in a community of people who allow me to be vulnerable,  and with that comes accountability. However, no matter how many people know what I am going through only I am in charge of me. Is it a new level of maturity? Maybe. I just know that the fruit of my life will be shown through that which grows inside of me, and if I continue to choose poor, unhealthy things I will continue to feel poor and unhealthy.

“The strongest principle of growth lies in human choice.” George Elliot
