I left all I knew, all that was familiar. I traveled across the country to start a new chapter in my life.
Friends said I was so brave, to do something unknown on my own. … I was scared. I think that my curiosity and my need for adventure outweighed my fear.
The need to feel filled with happiness always overshadows my fear. My desire to see and do more, to find the magic in life, that is what I have always wanted, no matter the fear.
“It’s never too late to start. It’s always too late to wait.”
I was already at “mid-life” even though I felt like life was just starting for me.
I told myself, you will never be this young again. And funny as it sounds, it’s almost like the aging process, from that moment on, started to rewind.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m getting older, but my hunger for life and desire for the best life is making me younger.
Walking new paths. I have found that I am still learning, filling in the pieces I was missing. Discovering things I didn’t know I loved.
Life is not easy, nor do we get everything we want. We navigate the rocky road we travel on our path. But when you move outside your comfort zone and desire more out of your life, you will start seeing life differently.
Investing in me, learning to love myself, making every day worth loving.
I may not be the creator of the road I travel.
But I choose to pick the new path that makes me curious, helps me continue to grow younger, helps me find the magic and the happy in my life.
June first…my happy, road less traveled anniversary.
