It's been awhile.
A bit has changed.
I received my 1 year chip. I have a new career starting soon.
Career. I said career.
My life is better than I could have ever imagined. Better than I deserve, definitely. But I will gladly take it and run with it.
I am happy. Even when everything isn't going how I want it to, I am happy because it is okay that it isn't going my way. It is going God's way, and God's way is exponentially better than my way.
Today is the first day of the rest of my life. Every day I wake up, it is the first day of the rest of my life. And I am thankful for that today. I am thankful and grateful and so incredibly blessed.
That isn't to say every day is rainbows and unicorns. It isn't. But it is how I choose to live my life today that makes it wonderful.
I still get scared and fear creeps back into my thoughts at times, but now I have the tools to be able to combat it. Today I don't have to stay in my head. Today I can help others so that I help myself.
Today I am making progress to become the mom I know my kids deserve, the wife my husband deserves and the person I deserve myself to be. The person I know I can be, if I put enough work into it.
Today is a good day, a great day.
Today, I am blessed beyond measure.
And it is all thanks to God.
