Playing Catch-up

As I looked back over these blog posts from almost a decade ago, I honestly cannot believe some of the things I said, the things I claimed, and how I wanted my life to be. There was even a check list of "goals" I had wanted to meet. Half of those goals? I still haven't accomplished in the last 5 years. Reasoning behind it? Unexpected obstacles to overcome where I had to make choices that I really hadn't expected to make. I thought I knew how my life was gonna go...had a "path" being paved and honestly, I'm struggling. However, I'm happier than I've been in a long time. I've accomplished things I never thought possible for myself, including running my own small business and selling my artwork across the country while traveling. Am I upset that I'm not further along in life and that I'm not as independent as I wish I was? Yes..but that doesn't mean life didn't show me a new path...a new journey...and a partner to have at my side along the way. 

If anyone reads this, please comment "memory" under this post. 

This will be a daily thing for me to post something on my blog. I want to hold myself accountable and to get everything on my mind out in words for the world to read. Writing a book eventually would be a true dream and a HUGE goal...but, I'm fine with writing my heart out here even just for myself.
