It’s been quite some time since my first post. I intended to keep up with this portion of my site, but things got away from me. Moving forward, I wish to use this space as an informal space for me to share my thoughts and more about who I am. In my 30 years on this planet, I finally feel confident enough my voice has a reason to be heard. Particularly in the chronic illness and self-healing spaces.
Scrolling through my personal Instagram account, I came across a post discussing how we have moments in our lives that define a “before” and “after.”
There are moments which mark your life. Moments when you realize nothing will ever be the same and time is divided into two parts: before this, and after this.
This is something I have greatly reflected on and can point to several occasions where these moments have occurred in my life. Many of which have occurred in the past six years. This block of time has become a bit of a blur at points, as events happened so quickly right after the other. It was also a major time of growth for myself. The young woman I was before this timeframe is no more. Even in the last two years I see a massive change.
I will discuss these parts within time, but for now I will say this: the person I am now may not have everything together, but I know now where I want my life to go. I know how I wish to spend my life — career wise and personally, I am more secure in the person I am, and I have a good idea of who I want in my bubble. I am still figuring out how to actually achieve these goals and to get to point B, but I’m taking steps each day to figure that out. My limited jewelry pieces are only just the beginning.
