Hello 2023

Happy New Year!

I have never been happier to see the end of a year in my life.

2022 aged me about a thousand years! It was lesson after lesson in grief, heartbreak, betrayal & problem-solving. I had to become a different person while still wanting to cling to a life that no longer existed. There were times when so many things were thrown my way at once I thought my head was going to explode!

Despite the hardships, I found strength and resilience within myself & I emerged from the year more enlightened than ever.

(But, if the universe is listening, I never want to go through that again!)

My plans for 2023 are to let things flow. I spent a good portion of 2022 trying to swim upstream, forcing situations to fit into whatever I thought to be the "right" thing to do. I had to learn that I can't force anything & trying to intervene is pointless. I must be at peace, knowing the karma will work itself out without my intervention.

I plan to stay in my own lane & focus on myself & my son. I also submitted the paperwork to possibly start fostering again, so we'll see how that goes.

Even though 2022 was an absolute mess for me, I'm thankful I can enter 2023 with a strong sense of who I am. Of course, I still stumble, but I don't fear the unknown anymore.
