Watching Harry Potter and I’ve got a bottle of Moscato wine opened…
If that doesn’t sound like a recipe for writing success, I don’t know what is.
So it’s time to reflect on another year…
Last year, I felt like sharing all sorts of wisdom. This year, I don’t feel like being altogether too wordy. In fact, everything can be summed in two words.
Surprise yourself.
When I started this blog, I never realized how much it would somehow encapsulate our journey. This was never intended to be a personal journal, yet here it is. Our lives. When you met me, I was fresh out of college. Now, Maia is just about to enter college…
Maybe I was onto something last year after all…
Never Stop believing in yourself. Break-ups. Rejections. Bill. Life. It eventually kind of piles up. Sometimes it feels good-
I’m an adult now! I’m so responsible! Other days it’s- I’m an adult now. I haaaaave to be responsible. Your mood will change. What should not change is your faith in yourself. Life is funny, it does funny things. If I have not pointed that out, it will do things on its own terms. You keep fighting nonetheless. The second you give up on yourself is when you concede defeat. That just won’t happen. We will make our dreams come true. In another five years, I can only hope to continue to surprise myself with the new things I have learned and conquered because I have remained open-minded and maintained my persistence.
If it doesn’t challenge you, it doesn’t change you.
Happy 3rd Birthday, Cookie Cutter Couture!
