Joy

Before coming to Springboard I had a problem with controlling my anger and being able to express how I feel without raging. Also keeping my feelings to myself which led to severe suicidal thoughts, attempts, and self-harm. Since being here I’m learning that we all have emotions and that you shouldn’t be afraid to show them. That God made you perfectly and you shouldn’t try to be or act like someone you’re not. I want God to help me be able to spread His Word even if people judge me. And being able to know that there is always light in the darkness because I have God in my heart. After Springboard, I want to be better at expressing my emotions the right way and to be able to handle conflict.
