January Girl
I’ve been really busy lately. After the holiday, I took to finishing the revamp of an entertainment site I owned since 2007. A nice woman had been keeping up with the place while I was off doing other things. Before Xmas she messaged me, asking for help with reviving the place and I figured it was as good a time as any.
I have been on so many misadventures over the past few years that I lost perspective on the things that mattered most to me. So, today, with a pile of school work and other obligations stacked in front of me, I decided that everyday will be one step at a time. I resolve to only invest in positive individuals and situations when I want and not when others want me to. Most importantly, if I do not believe in something or cannot trust the people involved in any particular venture, I will not be associated with it. No matter what opportunities such involvement could bring.
I’ve come to this conclusion over the past several months because I’ve had so many learning experiences! Lemme tell you, it has been like an amusement ride but I’m proud of how I’ve come out so far. I’m full-grown and gaining my voice; I’m the most confident I’ve ever been in my life, even on the far and few days when I’m uncertain or unsure. I’m asking questions and really contemplating my goals moving forward.
Returning to school full-time has been a HUGE part of my continued transformation. It has interjected some much needed drive and purpose in my life beyond being a mother and a dreamer. I’m even taking a piano class, something I’ve always wanted to do! I guess, all I can say is that I’m happy to be busy with all that I have. I am pulling out my own measuring stick and pushing out the noise from those that have given me ill-advice in the past and staying away from emotionally toxic individuals and situations. I only hope that the rest of this year will bear more life-changing insight and excitement. Take it away, Tori…
