Its been some time since I have sat down to write. My creative side took a hit this past winter and spring as my life completely capsized and I was forced to close a chapter in my life. They say everything happens for a reason. So here I am starting fresh and creating a new life for myself and my son. Its time to rewrite my script and create some new goals. To envision what I want in life for the both of us. Two words I have always craved and repeated in the past are PEACE and HAPPINESS. This is what I want from life. I am determined to live a life with nothing less than the both. Divorce can either make you or break you. At times, I am happy, other days I am sad or scared of the unknown future. There are days where I am stuck in between all three. Its a constant roller coaster of emotion. When I find myself falling into that dark void, I try my best to snap out of it and look on the bright side. My slate is clean. I have control of my life and I can choose to be happy. To fill my little home with as much lightheartedness, happiness and laughter as I want. I can venture out and experience new places or I can be a bum and veg out on the couch without worrying about a thing. I am still like a fish out of water. I miss the comfort of routine. Little by little I feel like life is starting to fall into place and I am slowly coming back to life. I miss writing, creating products for my small business, taking on diy projects, crafting with my son, enjoying long walks in the woods or dancing in the kitchen with Logan while prepping our dinner. For some reason or another, these simple pleasures I once used to enjoy have collected dust. With autumn around the corner (my most favorite time of year!!), I feel my flighty spirit becoming a little more grounded and yearning for the comfort of home. I am taking this time to create new traditions as well as welcoming some of those dusty pleasures back into my life. I am slowly coming alive. I am making a simple pledge to myself to revisit my blog and to continue to write. Even if small blurbs. Its therapeutic for my soul and I have missed it dearly. I am taking small steps towards creating a life I will come to love and enjoy. As they say, time is the healer. I am handling myself with love and patience. And I will forever try my best to handle each obstacle or hardship WITH love.
