How did it come to this??

mI didn’t expect a miracle. I just wanted one thing to go right. Instead, I left that bank office with the quiet realization that no one was coming to save me.

They said no like it was nothing.

But for me, that moment changed everything.

I walked in, hoping to consolidate my debt. I walked out, knowing I couldn’t keep living that way.
