The Journey
Hello, LiveJournal.
It's been a long journey, hasn't it? Looking back at my first entry I see that it was about being in my first flat while I was with my second boyfriend (out of the ones that really count) and I was really struggling to find myself.
Heh, I'm still struggling to find myself but I'm a little more used to it now.
Since those early days in 2003 I've had other boyfriends, fiancés, potential girlfriends, and now I'm married. I've had several jobs, been through months of counselling for depression, and now I'm doing mostly volunteer work and clinging to this side of broke but I'm incredibly happy. I've discovered that not everything that goes wrong in my life is my fault even when it constantly feels like it.
I've discovered there's always hope as long as I keep trying. There's always more to life than I've made the decision to grasp. There's always more to learn and explore, more adventures to be had, and surprises to endure and enjoy.
The people who truly matter still matter, the others are carried away by time but not forgotten.
I haven't always told you everything, LiveJournal, but you've kept a faithful record of many stepping stones along the way. Long may it continue.
Cheers.
