~my journey~

The life I imagined for myself is vastly different from the one I live now. But I love my life, complete with all the flaws & imperfections. The truth is, it's never been better. It's an amazing feeling; one that I'm just now getting used to. I can say that with a certain comfort, without fear that it will all end tomorrow. But then again, we never know, do we? That's what makes life so interesting, so incredibly terrifying, so wonderfully beautiful. It's what keeps us going, the wonder of tomorrow. The amazing journey.

My journey has been a long one, like many. With plenty of twists, turns, road blocks & dead ends. Obstacles upon obstacles. A messed up fairy tale, if you believe in fairy tales. Unplanned, uncertain and unintentional.

But I think that makes me lucky, right? Is it luck? Lucky to have experienced it? Lucky to have come this far?

Maybe it's a formula of luck, amazing strength and love that has helped me along. Follow my heart. Go without fear. Never look back. This is me. I'm grateful my journey has taken me here. Now that I've made it...I don't ever, ever want to go back. Hopefully, I still have a long way to go...
