Oh, February...

...the month when even the most sane of individuals begin to lose their shit. 

Seriously.  

Haven't you heard the warnings about not doing anything drastic to your hair during the month of February?   IT'S BECAUSE WE ARE ALL A LITTLE NUTS THIS MONTH!!

I, personally, have been on an emotional roller coaster from hell. 

And, I'm getting off. 

Immediately. 

I am no longer going to be a passenger in someone else's cart.  I'm taking back control and driving myself where I need to go. 

I generally have things under control, but being snowed in TWICE this year within two weeks, having two earthquakes immediately after, missing the gym more than I should have (partially from weather and partially from mindset), and overthinking absolutely EVERYTHING had me a little wonky and I ended up displacing some feelings onto others unnecessarily while making myself a little ill. :(

The good news is that I have PLENTY of great people in my life who help me daily to realize and recognize the person I truly am....not who I think I am or am not....not my insecurities....not my shortcomings....but ME. 

And now, I'm officially one day closer to fulfilling all those dreams I have. 

Being back on track feels so good.  I know I'll waiver again...that's called life.  But knowing that I don't ever have to feel completely alone, knowing that I am making decisions based on what is best for ME FIRST, and knowing that I am growing daily into the person I'm meant to be will help make derailments that much easier to deal with. 

Quote of the day: 

"It's easy to get discouraged and settle where you are in the tough times. But faith is about believing even when you can't see it. ... Don't talk yourself out of your future."  - Joel Osteen
