"Somewhere between the person I am today & the girl I was 5 years ago... are acres of grace"
There is so much truth to that statement when I compare it to my story. My life has evolved into something absolutely wonderful these past 5 years. I never fully realized all of the transformations taking place in my world until just recently. Days went by & it seemed like nothing was changing. It looked as if everything was stuck in limbo. 5 years later... & BAM. EVERYTHING is different. Beautifully different. Exquisitely revolutionized. It's refreshing to feel a true sense of pride for the girl I am today. It's been a long, unforgiving road, but I know I ended up where I needed to be.
In 5 years time, I've managed to find my Prince Charming, purchase a GORGEOUS home, sober up(where I'll happily remain), shed 50 pounds, start my own business, & tackle my all-time dream of becoming a photographer. My outlook on life has drastically improved. My priorities are in order. My feet are planted firmly on the ground. I do what I love & love what I do. I'm head over heels in love & I'm optimistic about the road ahead of me. Most importantly though, I'm happy. Ridiculously & completely happy. That, alone, is a monumental accomplishment. Some people search relentlessly for happiness... any form of happiness really. Other people spend their lives trying to convince themselves they are happy. For once in my life, I don't have to search for happiness. I don't have to force happiness. I am happy.
Genuinely happy.
