You know you've hit rock bottom when you fall down and can't be bothered to get back up.

My entire life was one endless beating, and I'd reached my breaking point. I was done.

Until one day, I received a letter that gave me the strength I'd been missing. Reading it gave me enough courage to dust myself off, to try one more time.

In that moment, I realized something.

I wasn't done.

Not even close.

And I had an entire family I didn't even know existed standing at my back.

You know you've hit rock bottom when putting powder up your nose is the only way to make it through the day.

My life took a wrong turn, so I poisoned my body in an attempt to escape. I was done.

Until I found salvation on the back of a bike.

With nothing but the open road and the wind in my face, I found the courage to live.

In that moment I realized something.

I wasn't done.

Not even close.

And my family might not be blood, but they were standing at my back.
