Going Forward

I have always loved sunrises and sunsets. Especially the sunsets because I am usually not a morning person. But they always were beautiful. When I was growing up, I remember being surrounded by big beautiful mountains, and the sunsets would fill up the sky more beautiful in Arizona than many people can imagine. However, they always left me wondering what was on the other side? I was so scared as a kid when my parents made us move. I was more scared when we moved again because once again I had to leave my friends who I loved dearly behind. However, despite that fear, I am so glad I began to discover more of life.

I should take a lesson out of my own memories and remind myself how upset I was when I was forced by to start a new chapter by my parents when we moved, but also how blessed I ended up becoming because I had to start a new chapter. There is an important lesson I need to remember in that. Each place I have lived has been very different. I don’t think any place was better or worse than another just different. As an adult, I have moved fearlessly many times to many new states, and even ventured overseas at one point. Would I have been able to do that if I never experienced life in the unknown?

While I do plan on going back, I have been reminded lately of all I have been through that has led me to this point in my life. It has always been hard for me to let people get to know the real me, but as an adult, it’s easier to find new jobs with new possibilities and new paths in life I can take and follow. These next few months I have been focusing on getting back to proper health and saving for my big year ahead. I have so much to look forward to in life and I am so excited that with each day, I am one step closer to achieving my dreams.
