optimistic.

Well, it's been over a month and three people in the passed week have reminded me how lonely Warm October is... So, I'm finally back. February was a crazy month for me... Lots of decisions and changes were made, all... for the better. 

I came to an epiphany sometime in mid February, while exploring options for my possible near future, and that's: I am happy where I am and with what I'm doing. Simple as that. You may feel it's minuscule to come to such a realization, but, to me, reaching that step came along with a clearer mind, a load off my back, tons of stress relief and even a healthier me. Becoming conscious of this- along, of course, with the support and LOVE from my amazing friends- helped me through a sad and exhausting breakup and each day is looking brighter than the last. I can only go forward from here... and now, unlike a few weeks ago, I am anticipating my unknown, exciting, optimistic future...


To 'piggyback' on the above, i've also come to appreciate not just what's (un)planned for my future, but for what I already have today. As cheesy as it sounds, think about it... you might forget about something so simple as a sweet and generous gesture- or as not-so-simple as a great friend. Or something hidden in plain sight, like a beautiful person that you've always known, but now is an extraordinary friend...
