Never Settle

I can't believe it's almost August. Summer is here and almost gone. The trees are starting to turn. I don't realize until I look up from time to time how much has actually passed and how quickly. Over the span of the last few years, my self reflection has been in over drive. I know my worth, and it may have taken 40 years, but I respect myself so much more these days. I know the people that matter and the people who belong in my life. Those who've walked away, needed to walk away, for me and for them. Don't get me wrong, they've been key players in my game of life. They've taught me lessons and brought me to my own attention as they were meant to. Time was never wasted, I still have no regrets. Going forward, I know what I want, and I won't accept anything less, even if it means walking away from something that I never wanted to let go of in the first place.

Enjoy this weather, we don't get it often enough. Enjoy your people, your tribe is all you have.

Live, Laugh, Love. (Because I'm totally full of philosophical shit right now)

War and Peace, or is it Love and War?

This year, I want more. I want different. I want passion and to feel so deeply that I will shatter from the inside out. I'm suffering from writers block again, maybe if I just let it start, it will come.

I turned 42 this year. I'm single, have 2 beautiful children and am at a point in my life that I'm done with the games and worthless drama. I do well for myself, have the things I need and hesitate on the things I want. I answer to only myself and sometimes I wish it wasn't that way. Sometimes I wish I had someone else to show me the kind of love and compassion I want to give.

Lately I'm reminded of a couple times the "fit" actually happened in my life. Here's to hoping one day, that fit happens again.
