My life is an ever changing story. The chapters are still being written and the ending is still up in the air. Every now and then I decide how I want the next chapter to take shape and the old me would obsess over it and try to control every little bit of the current chapter in effort to make the next chapter how I want it to be.
But now I've come to realize that I can enjoy the story of my life better if I sit back and just let it unfold before me. What was once my future has become my past. I lived through it and I'm better now that I'm on the other side of it. And to my surprise I've become content and happy. Happier than I've been in years. I keep a picture of me from when I was 18 on my front door. That was one of the happiest times of my life and really the last time that life didn't feel like a struggle and I hope to get back there soon.
Don't get me wrong, between then and now I've had some pretty great things happen to me. I've made some great friends. Some that I've lost touch with and some that I still have in my life. And of course my Little One. My biggest blessing of all. <3
So here's to the future!! 2012 is about getting back to a life of less stress, more fun and learning/growing from my mistakes. No looking back and no regrets!! Just life!
