Setbacks...Where did Kadee's Coner go?

Setbacks, they're annoying, unplanned, inconvenient, and ultimately daunting depending on the circumstance. I've recently gone through a few setbacks and in my case I totally let it take over my plans. Instead of moving forward and working around it I became defeated and wallowed in my despair. To put this in context let me share what the "setback" was exactly. After starting this blog and sharing my story with you guys I started to doubt myself and get self-conscious. I feared what people would think of me and believed that I was sharing too much. I let these thoughts spiral and ended up in a depression. I unpublished my blog and shut myself in a dark room with only me and my thoughts for weeks. I am not proud of this and I am very thankful for the friends and family I have that checked up on me. I am feeling better now. I just have to remind myself that those negative thoughts are from the enemy. My aunt Cindy said a phrase to me when I was in this dark place that resonates with me. She said, "speak the truth and shame the devil" (or something along those lines). With Kadee's Corner, I am speaking my truth and potentially helping anyone who's been where I am and needs guidance. I am far from having everything together but God has me and I'm doing life day by day. God has a purpose for me and I know that everything happens for a reason so I'll take this setback as a lesson and we'll see where we go from here.
