Christina:

Don’t do it! You know, I mean, I was probably seconds away, could have finished the rest of the bottle. And if you can just grab on to one thing in your life, you know, find that happy place, just that quick glimmer. Even though the door is closed, that window is always cracked open for you. Go, find that window. Find that crack, get that fresh air and hold on to that and even if you’ve got to… I pictured it as going through this small crack of this window, and even though I was getting cut up and battered, I knew that I am going to make it out on the other side. But it’s just holding on just to that one small thing and grabbing on to it for dear life and going.
