Erin Napier

“I grew sick with boredom and consumed by stress. I was mad at myself for simply surviving, annoyed that I didn't have the courage to leave my job.
I was pushed and pulled in two directions, faced with a clear choice: I could remain where I was, stable and protected and dying on the inside. Or I could trust myself and take a leap of faith that frightened and excited me in all the right ways.
The decision came down to something simple: ignoring or listening to myself.”
― Erin Napier, Make Something Good Today: A Memoir

“Writing down only the good moments of each day was my way of controlling the narrative of our life. Even I was out of control of the events of the day, writing what I chose to remember changed life as I knew it.
It was a way to make my faith become more real than my fear.”
