As, I get older....I am determined to become a better version of myself. I refuse to fall into the mold of being disrespectful, rude, no filter etc just because I've crossed a certain age. I don't want people saying, ..." just look over her, she's old." Nah....Hold me accountable! The more excuses you make for people, the more you promote bad behavior; and I don't want any parts of that.
I wish I could project memories from my previous years...my thoughts and my reactions. Whewwwwww! Yall, it was ugly. I am fully acknowledging that. Honey! Thank God for GROWTH!
I was reading some of my old journal entries a few weeks ago. And when I tell you so many of them were cringe worthy. My gosh! If you really wanna track your change, try JOURNALING. Journaling forces you to see things as they are vs how you want them to be. I literally sat and cried. I had to thank God as I read them, because in those moments, I didn't realize just how broken I was.
But God is good. He's more than good...He's amazing....He's everything to me.
I'm not gonna sit here and dwell on the past though. I'm just gonna say, SHUN, YOU DID THAT!! It's no way I can stop now! Imagine me in 2 years....imagine me in 5 years....the feeling I have when I realize how far I've come is soooo humbling.
AND YOU....None of us are where we were. Time has continued to move forward and refused to wait on anyone. No...you may not be where you wanna be, but you DEFINITELY aren't where you were. Your finances may have changed...but your mental capacity is flourishing. You may STILL be battling some mental and financial struggles, but if you stopped long enough to evaluate it, you can see chang there too.
None of our lives are perfect. None of us. No matter how people present themselves, we ALL have work to do. So, keep pushing. Keep changing. Keep growing! Your mindset will take you places FEAR cannot be at peace. lol Celebrate growth.
...Extend some Grace. Share some LOVE . And Let's A.C.E (Affirm, Change, Elevate) 2024!
