New Opportunities

It’s so important to evaluate your life; don’t wait for a special day, the next month, or the new year- do it now! Pause and just think: Where am I? Do I like it here? Or is there something better out there for me?

Almost four years ago, I felt like I knew where my life was headed, and I thought I was happy. But I wasn’t. I just had this feeling that there was a better life waiting for me…and my life today is proof that there really was! Although I was comfortable with my situation, I was not IN LOVE with it. I was scared, I was nervous…I didn’t want to let go of what was working for me. However, just because something is working, it doesn’t mean that it’s the right thing for you. Likewise, just because you are comfortable in your life, it doesn’t mean you are content.

And now? Now that I’m at this place in my life, I cannot envision myself anywhere else. I don’t regret going in the direction I was headed a few years ago, solely because that direction is what led me to this new path. This new path that I’m so excited to continue pursuing, and that I know will lead me to an even better place than where I’am today.
