Looks like God's got some serious planning skills because my current situation is not what I had in mind.
But hey, maybe his plans are just so much better that I can't even comprehend them yet! U know!!!! Or maybe he's just taking a really long coffee break, who knows! 🤷🏻♀️
Im in a very weird season of my life. This time last year I was in a completely different place. A place that was incredibly dark and scary. I had no idea about who I was and who I wanted to be. I had no sense of direction and was in such a confusing time in my life. I had moved cities, I was in a new relationship with a woman, I was drinking heavily, I had gone through 4 jobs and was feeling miserable at my 5th, I was irresponsibly spending money, I felt lost and lonely. I think about where I was last year and can’t believe how much can change in a year. My life has gone from hopeless to hopeful and I honestly can’t understand why I had the honor of being able to crawl out of a whole and stand firmly on the ground. Don’t get me wrong. I am still struggling. My life still doesn’t feel like mine but I am now giving myself the permission to dream. I never thought I could have enough faith in myself to dream and to actually try to reach for it. So sitting here a year later feels honestly weird. I don’t know this version of myself at all. I don’t know the person who is actually hopeful and willing to try. I thought I was predestined to fall, to have a life that is just here and I go through the painful motions. But now I find myself here and filled with so much hope. And I have no idea who this human is. It’s a weird disconnection that I can’t quite describe. It’s like being in the dark for so long that when a light turns on, it hurts to see. And sometimes the dark feels more safe. That’s the season I am in. It’s hurting to see the light but I so badly want to hang on to it. But life is funny that way. You can’t hang on to anything, especially light. So I am learning to be patient with myself, lean into the unknown part of myself that has been waiting to make an appearance, and just try. I have been sober for two months, I have been at a job for my longest stint yet, I am in a healthy relationship, I am taking care of my body, I am starting to do the things I truly enjoy, I am dreaming. I don’t know this person. I have turned into a stranger and it’s the scariest feeling. But this stranger is me, really me, and she’s finally found her way home. So friends, I hope these words find you well and find you hopeful. I have lived through some dark years and never in my mind did I think I was worthy of any light. But here I am. Light shining on my face and a hopefulness that I hope never leaves. Life is full of surprises. And if this last year has taught me anything, it’s: the best is truly yet to come. Merry merry, my people.

It's not just that I get offended by someone else disrespecting my boundaries but also that I see a lot of people having no boundaries at all. And it actually irks me that how can I expect someone with no boundaries to respect or understand those of mine!
पिकासो ने क्या चित्रित किया होता यदि उनके पास मध्य जीवन 🏥💉💊 संकट होता और उन्होंने अपनी 🧑🎨🖼️ उत्कृष्ट कृतियों को आंकड़ों में बदलने का फैसला किया होता? इसे चित्रित करें: "द ओल्ड मैन विद अ गिटार" "द 👴🏫 ओल्ड मैन विद अ स्टिक फिगर" में बदल रहा है - अब यह अपने सर्वोत्तम रूप में आधुनिक कला है! लेकिन शुक्र है, पिकासो ने उस 🎨🖌️🖼 कलात्मक रीसेट बटन को नहीं दबाया, ठीक वैसे ही जैसे तितलियां 🎤🌟🕺 को अपने 🐛🐌🤔 कैटरपिलर दिनों में वापस बदलने का फैसला नहीं करती हैं। कलात्मक यू-टर्न और 🐞🐜🦗 कैटरपिलर अराजकता के लिए जीवन बहुत छोटा है। तो, आइए अपने भीतर के पिकासो को प्रवाहित करें, विचित्रताओं को अपनाएं, और 🎨🖌️🖼 हास्य के साहसिक स्ट्रोक और 👍👎🤔 सादगी के साथ अपने जीवन को रंग दें। आख़िरकार, जब आप 🃏😂🔥 प्रफुल्लितता के स्पर्श के साथ अपनी उत्कृष्ट कृति बना सकते हैं तो रिवाइंड बटन की आवश्यकता किसे है?
